Question one week tomorrow!



Recommended Posts

My surgery was two weeks ago yesterday. I just toughed it out. I wasn't even allowed Protein shakes until one week out, so you are better off than I was if you are already on shakes. I just did yogurt and strained clear Soups (chicken noodle varieties mostly) for that first week. I found the sugar-free Jello and popsicles to be pretty useless, since they don't actually provide any calories.

Once I was allowed Protein Shakes and strained cream Soups, I was just doing two shakes and some Soup each day. I was technically supposed to be on that until this coming Thursday, but yesterday I tried a little cottage cheese and did okay with it, so I'm probably going to add that into the mix until Thursday when I'm allowed more pureed/soft foods.

i've been doing sugar-free pudding with Protein powder. yogurt makes me gag...trying some now and my stomach is gurgling like crazy. i will be one week out tomorrow and getting my staples out. i find that F/F creamed Soups are quite tasty and comforting and i have been using carnation no sugar added Protein shakes. they taste so much better than that clumpy Protein Powder crap i bought. i add 1 tbsp of instant Decaf coffed dissolved in hot Water to the shake to make it a cafe mocha flavor. no problem getting those down.

I'm not allowed pudding until Thursday, but I think I will definitely try that out. The cafe mocha sounds good too and I'm technically allowed decaf coffee now. I just haven't had any, because DECAF coffee always seemed to defeat the purpose of coffee for me. Maybe I'll grab some at the store tonight.

Should I worry about the fat content in cream Soups tho? That does sound good.

With as little as we are actually eating, I can't imagine it makes much difference at this point. ZOMG, you might break 300 calories for the DAY!

we were told to get 98% f/f cream Soups. they are not so bad. i just strained out the mushrooms for the cream of mushroom Soup. have not done the cream of chicken yet. i am only getting down 2 shakes a day and maybe half a pudding cup. i hated yogurt before and now i REALLY hate it. just tastes even worse.

      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! 😞
