So I went to see my surgeon today for my two week visit and he gave me the OK for solid foods. He said I look great and I'm tolerating foods awesome. He told me I can pretty much eat anything besides red meat bread rice pasta all the stuff I wasn't planning on eating anyway. Is this to soon? I'm happy because I can finally chew but A tad bit apprehensive.

It sounds a bit early if you had RNY gastric bypass surgery.

I wasn't cleared to eat anything and everything until the three-month mark, but all surgeons are different. You aren't the first I've heard of who was cleared to eat solid food that early - although it doesn't seem to be common.

I did have RNY . I asked him if it was to early and he said no. He told me to just listen to my body . I been tolerating everything so far. Today I had a piece sliced turkey breast and pepper jack and chopped it up small and chewed it very well. Took my time eating it . Took around 30 mins to eat 1/4 a cup . And I feel great. For the first time I actually felt full.

I had no problems either but I was not released for regular food until I hit 8 weeks post op.

I was cleared to eat solid food yesterday, which was 6 weeks post op for me.

Wow so I'm right it is early. He told me cook my veggies very soft and my meat moist not dry. Maybe because I wasn't eating puréed food at all? I just couldn't stand the texture. And explain how I felt I wasnt consuming enough calories . I was barley eating 400 a day .

I'd say take it slow, which it sounds like you are... and hey, you can still eat the non solid foods, no harm there.

Yeah I'm in no rush to go eat real solid food . But it was refreshing to actually chew my food lol idk how you strong people did like a month pre op full liquid and then post op as well. I only had to do 2 week low carb diet pre op. I guess I'm lucky

Sounds like you are doing great. There is absolutely no way I could eat solid food right now. I am three weeks out, and just recently got on the pureed stage. I can eat about 2 tablespoons of food at a time, and I know that if I tried solid food at this point it would come all up. I am hoping to be able to move to soft foods in about two weeks, but we will see.

Sounds soon but go by what your surgeon says. Take it slow and chew. Make sure you call if have any concerns. Listen to your body.

PS.. Super jealous. I am ony 12th day clear liquid and Protein, still have almost another week to go. Will advance to full liquids for a couple weeks, and than soft foods for a couple weeks. Wont be able to eat real food for like 2 months.

Enjoy and good luck
