Stage 2 -One solid meal replacement. (Question)

Hi everyone!

I was sleeved a little over two weeks ago (1/31/17).

I am now stating the next stage where you have two shakes a day and one solid (proteins).

I referring to the packet and list of all acceptable foods. chicken, eggs, chili... etc.

however I'm just a little concerned. To be only two weeks post op and eating such foods. I'm worried to stretch my stomach however my surgeon approves of this list provided. Just seems crazy to be eating eggs and chicken and whatever else is on the sheet so soon. I spoke to the nutritionist and it's allowed.

Anyone else thing the same or have any comments ????

Thanks so much !!!

It is odd that each surgeon has different diets after surgery. At 2 weeks after surgery I was JUST starting pureed diet. If you are concerned I suggest you eat something soft like eggs, refried Beans, greek yogurt, fish, or making chicken and pureeing it with some broth, sauce, or milk.

If you don't feel comfortable then don't eat something so solid.

It is suggested to follow your surgeons plan but but I feel like thats more the rule for when you want to move faster than their plan, if you want to move slower that is up to you!

I'm on day two post surgery. I have one more day of clear liquids. Then I have ten days of soft foods. Yogurt, pudding etc. Then I go to real food. So that's two weeks out. Just start small.
