HOW LONG BEFORE YOU GOT TO MOVE TO FULL LIQUIDS



Recommended Posts

I was on full liquids the same day of surgery. I haven't done any cream of anything because I have worries about milk. I am just about 1 week out and would kill for some things people get. I am happy my surgeon is cautious but I want to chew… even mushy eggs.

Morning.......

Week 1-2 ...... Clear Liquids Only

Week 3-6 ....... Soft Mushy/pureed foods

Week 7-on ...... Try small amounts of food, one at a time.

You have a brand new baby tummy. Think of it that way. You can only start like that. When you feed a baby, you only give little bites at first and then a month or two down the road, you try another type of food.< /p>

Ohhh....don't be afraid to try new foods, your palate is different now and it is really cool the foods you will try.

DRINK Water, PLENTY OF Water

I don't even like eggs and I can't wait to have a mushy egg in a few days. Just a couple bites will be so nice. I also want some applesauce. I see my doc tomorrow for my 1 week post op appointment and he said I should be able to.move to mushy foods.

I was on full liquids pretty much immediately. I was nil by mouth for the day of surgery, but from Day 2 I was able to drink milk and eat Soup.

I was on full liquids for week 1 and 2, purees for week 3 and 4, soft foods for week 5 and 6 and from next week will be able to move on to a normal range of foods.

SO FUNNY HOW THAT WORKS, THEY DID TELL ME THAT YOUR TASTE BUDS COULD CHANGE, YOU COULD NOT LIKE SOMETHING BEFORE AND THEN CRAVE IT AFTER THE SURGERY, WELL I DISLIKE PEAS AND I HAVEN'T WANTED THEM AND STILL THE THOUGHT OF THEM MAKES ME SICK LOL

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
