my husband had his surgery June 20th. He has been sore also but was up walking the evening of the surgery and walked every hour the day after.

unfortunately he has not done as much walking at home but he is doing some. He is getting tired of the liquid diet. We are trying to figure out when he will get to start eating again. We are a little confused about this. We understood that he would be going to his doctor 1 week after surgery after eating a bite of a boiled egg and would progress from there. Well he had the surgery on a Monday and the doctor has made his appt. for July 1st. He was on liquid diet 2 weeks before surgery and now they want to keep him on liquids for 2 more weeks. He is having a hard time with it. I am hoping to get some advice from others on this site.

I'm on day three after surgery today. Today is a lot better than yesterday as far as getting liquids down. I'm just kind of accepting the fact that my belly is sore and feels full but I need to keep getting my liquids in.

I also did a two week preop liquid diet and first two days postop were Clear Liquids followed by two weeks full liquids. There will be plenty of time to try new foods later, but now is the time for healing.

There's a lot I can try on full liquids, shakes with different added flavors, strained Soups, yogurt, veggie juice, pudding.

It will be six weeks before I can have "regular" food, so I'm staying positive because I'm in this for the long haul.

I remember those days. Everything is in constant change. Anyways I put down my experiences with RNY gastric bypass and put them in a short article. At the back there are recipes when your husband finally advance to the solid food stage. http://www.breadandbutterscience.com/Surgery.pdf

My surgery was on June 21st and I'm already on puréed food. My 2nd day after surgery was painful from gas. Just had to keep moving. Feeling good. I haven't vomited or anything. I've had scrambled eggs, tuna, cottage cheese, and buffalo chicken.
