Yogurt 1 week post op

[kelliev2015 136]

Ok. I'm going to stop apologizing for all of the questions cause clearly, they just keep coming.

I was sleeved on 8/8 and am still not able to eat yogurt very easily. I'm on liquids but can also do Jello, yogurt and sugar free pudding. I've done fine with everything else but still struggling with the yogurt. Did anyone else have this problem? Maybe I'm just trying too soon?

It might be too soon fro you. Even though the food stages exist as guidelines, they just mean you can TRY those foods at those times, not that you HAVE to be eating them then. Everyone heals at a different rate. Have you tried drinkable yogurt (the stuff for kids?). I actually started that before moving onto thicker yogurt.

While I was allowed yogurt as soon as I started full liquids - on day 3 post op, I didn't actually try it until two days before my 2 week post op appointment. Honestly, before that I don't think i would have done well with it because of the thickness. even when I did try it - I only had one ounce very slowly per day for a while, then 2 ounces. Last week (week 8 post op) was the first time I ate a half carton (little over 2.5oz) at a time. So this early out - if you're struggling, back off it for a while and try it again in another week or so.

I didn't have trouble with yogurt, but I did with other foods. I think it is somewhat normal

You might try thinning it out some. Or you may have developed some sort of intolerance. I had some weird taste changes and couldn't stand yogurt for a few weeks.

I was sleeved 08/09 and ate some nonfat greek yogurt today and it was great. Like the person before me said it could be an intolerance you've developed. I've eaten boiled eggs all my life but last month began to get headaches from it, guess who developed an egg white Protein intolerance, yep this lady. Intolerance aren't so bad, you won't die usually just feel blah to barfy. Heh
