That sound like good weight loss for 3 weeks post-op. What type of surgery did you have.

Generally the surgeons office and nutricianist provides a list of acceptable foods that you can eat during various stages after surgery.

Your Dr didn't give you a meal plan? I have a meal plan and shopping list for basically the entire first 6 months.

We can't tell you how you should be eating, your Dr should had told you based on your needs and history.

I was just four days ahead of you, on the 15th, although @OutsideMatchInside is right, we can't tell you what you need to be doing, I will have to say, that I'm no longer subjected to liquids, puréed, etc. I'm totally on regular foods, albeit healthy foods. Still can't eat very much though. Get with your doc office and they should give you a guideline.

Is there a nutritionist you have met with, or could meet with? It's one of the many requirements of the program I'm in that we meet with one and I have a slew of questions already!

Somewhere down the line, you can check out the posts on the site of people's menus: with the caveat that not everyone is making perfect choices all the time!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
