First Real Food Today!

RNY Bypass was 2 weeks ago today. Can't believe how far I've come in just two weeks! My surgeon has food "phases" each lasting two weeks. Phase 1 postop is liquid only (No liquids on day of surgery, water on 2nd day after upper GI confirming no leaks, & then ease into protein when possible. Jello, yogurt, and Pudding are okay in this phase. Phase 2 is "Very Soft Foods" & that starts today! My first meal is 1/4 of Egg Beaters. Fingers crossed!

Hope it went well! Eggs are one of my favorite foods.

Eggggggcellent! How'd it sit? (I see you're a pepper monkey like me! :D )

1/4 cup Cottage cheese with baby food fruit. Just be careful to watch the sugar content. No more than 7g per jar. You should only use 1/3 to 1/2 the jar for one meal.

Went pretty well. I couldn't finish them yesterday. Today I went slower with my small bites and made sure to chew more. Never paid attention to chewing scrambled eggs before. I think I use to chew two or three times & swallow. Not anymore! & yes! I'm definitely a pepper monkey!

The eggs went well yesterday! Although at the end of the night, I calculated out 10g protein short for the day. Made hot cocoa with skim milk. Feels very wrong to force myself to eat or drink when I have no hunger.

I'm supposed to add one new food per day. Had my eggs for breakfast, so today's new food will be cottage cheese (with pepper, of course).


at first i was confused when you said you were "eating eggs".

but the accompanying pictures cleared everything up. :1313_thumbsup_tone4:
