Anyone else had problems with diet 2 weeks post op



Recommended Posts

Im 2 weeks post op. I was looking forward to adding protien and yogurt to my diet but im not able to tolerate anything besides the clear liquid diet. Has this happened to anyone else? My stomach is bloated all day long when i try to incorporate protien shakes, dannon light and fit greek, diet v8, and fat free cream Soups.< /p>

Oh yes, I was in your spot at week 3 through week 6. I am week 8 now and it was week 7 when it truly got better. Keep the fluids and shakes going and know that this will pass. Also, oddly enough, I started Quest Protein Bars at week 6 and I felt so much better. They are sugar free, have 20 grams of Protein and I went yo GNC as they have them buy 2 get 1 free so I tried them prior to buying a box. I like brownie, chic chip chunk and the caloric range on the ones I have is I hunk 170 to 210 calories. 23 carbs as well. Good luck I only eat 1 per day

@@VPAPNYC yes as far as I know it is still going on. They helped me get in some much needed nutrition when I needed it most. My nut loves them and my trainer loves them too.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
