8 days post op how much can you eat



Recommended Posts

Hello, @rolo626.

Eight days post-op I could probably have about 2 ounces of broth or strained Soup. I would add unflavored Protein powder.

If I may, how fast are you having your meals?

I'm 8 days out and have about 2 tablespoons yogurt for Breakfast. 8 oz Protein Shakes twice a day and a mug of clear Soup for dinner (usually finish about half). Also pudding or ice pops for Snacks. I do feel hungry between meals. NUT says it's my brain but stomach is growling. Moving to soft foods in 2 days.

Wow! I am 9 days post op and I can only get 2 1/2 to 4 ounces of Soup broth. If it is cream soup it is on the low end compared to liquid broth Soups. I constantly sip Water through out the day and have a schedule where I have my meals, shakes, milk and popsicles and I still can't meet my ounces. I use the unflavoured Protein Powder to reach my Protein goals. Good luck and good health to you!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
