Help! I ate real food!

Help! I'm only one week post op and I ate a half of a sandwich! I'm still supposed to be on the liquid diet...I can't believe I done this. Am I going to die? Should I be looking for any signs of anything?

Why did you do this? You need to contact your surgeon right away as you can damage your new stomach by doing this.

I don't mean to be rude, you obviously know you shouldn't do this but you need to get to the bottom of why you did it so it does not happen again.

Having WLS is 90% head game and 10% surgery so if you are already not following the rules, you are potentially going to have trouble following them going forward. This is just my advice but I would contact a therapist that specializes in bariatric patients.

You're going to be okay. I know what you're going through. People are going to be very hard on you...might even make u feel bad but do not listen to them. We're human and make mistakes. Pm me if u need support. I ate thanksgiving solids 6 days after surgery and I was fine buddy. Please pm me if u feel like you're up against the wall and have no one to turn to.

It's weird I'm 1 week post op and I feel full when I eat but nothing has bothered my pouch...had potatoes and cheese at 4 days and a chicharone and had Beans and guacamole and sour cream tonight for dinner. I've had no nausea or pain. I kinda feel like something is wrong because I'm not having any issues I see everyone complaining about.

Please, please don't do this again for your own safety...bread is a real no no. You are still healing and raw. I sincerely hope you will be fine, and if you are consider yourself lucky and don't test fate again. The first few weeks after surgery are not the time for people to be testing to see if it worked...if you get full etc. Your doctor's plan is for your safety!

And sometimes people are just being a horses rear end... just sayin. I posted and asked for help because I was desperate. You have a great night.

I hope you are ok. Agree with everyone else: Contact the surgeon asap. If it is after hours, call the on-call service. Lord knows I called them at least once a week for the first 4 weeks because I had some issues.

Did you have a RNY GB? I am amazed you could get food down during the first week. I could barely tolerate liquids. Good luck with it all...

Minle360 Yes R & Y GB. I've had no problems what so ever with liquids. I haven't thrown up or even been nauseous with the exception of the day of surgery. I've contacted my surgeon by have yet to hear from him. Thank you so much for your comment and your support.

Be aware of everything you put in your mouth.

After 6 weeks about all I can eat comfortably is Soup, malt o meal and soft cheese.

You have to be patient.

Im trying to adjust as well after nearly 60 years of shoveling whatever I want in my mouth it is

difficult.
