It depends on your plan. I am 6 weeks and I can eat enough things that I can look almost normal eating, just small appetite.

I can eat eggs at Breakfast. I could eat oatmeal or something if I wanted, but I don't

lunch I can have salads at 6 weeks, so I could have a salad with a Protein and just eat the Protein first.

dinner, fish or seafood.

As long as you have a smooth recovery you will do fine on vacation. Just take some individual protein packets, and shaker. Make sure you drink Water all day.

I was gonna say, if it is an all inclusive resort that provieds delicious foods and drinks whenever you want, I would postpone surgery. OR, if you were going someplace famous for their foods, delay surgery. Since the place comes with a kitchen and you have to prepare your own meals, keep your surgery date. Be very careful of the sun. You will be more sensitive to the sun and will have to hydrate yourself twice as the dr will recommend. NO ALCOHOL!!!!!! Hope you have a fantastic time!!!!

You will be fine! I am on vacation now with my family. I am almost exactly 2 months out. We have a kitchen but go out frequently. I made pancakes for my family today and wasn't even slightly tempted. I made egg whites with cheese for myself. Last night we were out and I had a cucumber salad and a burger patty no bun. On an island you should have tons of seafood options which are great post op. Enjoy!

      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! 😞
