Don't know what to eat



Recommended Posts

So I'm about 5 months post op and 1 month post op from my gallbladder removal as well. Ever since I had GB out I cannot find any substantial food that I like and that's even healthy. I'm gonna get in trouble lol but the only foods I seem to be able to eat and enjoy are pizza, Pasta, chips, popcorn things that aren't exactly good for a post op sleeve patient I know. Don't get me wrong I don't go crazy with the food I eat like 3 bites of pizza and I'm done I'm just nervous because I'm feeling weak and tired all the time and don't know what to do! I try to eat Proteins such as chicken and meats (I used to LOVE chicken before both surgeries and now can't stand it) but nothing seems to go down. Do you think maybe I should make an appointment with the nutritionist at my surgeons office? I haven't seen her in a while and think maybe that I should get a direct plan of things to eat that'll at least be a little healthier!

Has anyone else had similar issues? My friend had her gallbladder out and is fine, of course she has a full stomach so I can't really relate to her. Just wondering if anyone out there has face similar problems after GB and sleeve with eating right.

This sounds like a way to justify doing what you know you shouldn't be doing. I'm a direct person and I know it doesn't win friends, but it seems like you need a direct friend to tell you straight up that you need to knock it off. Eat healthy food if you have to gag it down. Otherwise admit you want to go back to your old ways.

      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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
