I think just about everyone has that same thought of "what the hell did I do" during that first week. It is slightly rough. But before you know it you are going on one month since surgery, down almost 30 lbs, and eating soft foods.

I'm wondering since I'm doing really great with soft foods, when do I start with regular foods? I'm ready to try some things like spinach (uncooked) and lettuce; perhaps a small salad?

Im same as you 2.5 weeks post op. struggling a bit with choices but am sticking to 1/2 to 3/4 cup meal once or twice a day and shakes or Soup for rest to get Protein up. All depends on how my tummy is feeling....

So far Ive tried lightly scrambled egg, roughly pureed chicken, pureed lamb stew, mashed up meatballs with a sauce, mashed fish, mashed potato, all were fine.... I have also had a rice cracker thing with a slice of cheese on it. The rice crackers melt in your mouth and the cheese is very soft.

What have you been trying?

I've had shrimp, squash/zucchini (in a grill pack..by far the best thing so far), Northern Beans, baked Beans, refried beans, avocado, green beans, a little scrambles egg, lasagna but no noodles I just had sauce for the most part, Greek yogurt, and some thinly shaved turkey and ham from a deli.

Tonight for dinner I had about 2 oz of seared Ahi tuna steak and about 2 oz of Lobster Bisque Soup. Delicious and satisfying!

      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! 😞
