@@viri87 yogurt would not have been okay on my post-op plan, but plans vary a lot. Best to call your bariatric team and check in with them for guidance. Welcome and good luck!

No... stick to Protein drinks and water!!! You gotta ease into that but right now... Protein is key!

Most of us were given a plan on what to eat and when. Are there really so many people here who have no idea what to eat and when? My thought is to make sure you get this plan before surgery. I used a monthly calendar and noted the stages for eating. Good luck everyone and make sure your surgeon has you prepared!

You need to ask your Team about what you can/can't have. On my plan - yogurt would not be allowed at only 4 days post-op. Protein shakes and Clear liquids only. Everyone's plan is different though - so check to see what you are allowed.

thanks everyone, you guys are so helpful and supportive I really thanks God for each of you here and the support. By the way I am doing awesome on day 4, my only concern was getting my Protein down wich I found to sweet now and that is why I was asking about the yogurt but I end up mixing unflavored Protein powder with chicken broth, the only thing is that is not completly sodiun free but I hope is fine because at least I an getting my protein!!!

Yay congrats! I had surgery on Monday, too! Like everyone said, plans differ but I have tried Greek yogurt, ricotta cheese, pudding, Italian ice..just make sure you have everything low/nonfat and no sugar.

It is pretty scary that you go home not knowing what to eat. A nurse and the nutritionist from my program called today to see how I'm doing and what I'm eating/drinking.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
