Yes, Everyone has different instructions. My instructions were over three years ago. I'm sure they are out of date. Best advice is follow your instructions given by your team.

Hi. My dietary guidelines were 2 days Clear Liquids after surgery followed by 2 weeks of full liquids then 2 weeks of puréed food. The following month is soft foods and the next month is solids. Is your plan similar?

I (and others, I'm sure) was offered clear liquids on the day of surgery and the day after.

I was ordered to be on a liquid diet for the first week. I am in my second week now. I am allowed to have "full" liquids this week. The third week I can move on to pureed foods. She said to do that for the full week and then, when I feel comfortable, start trying soft foods. The one thing I have been a bit confused on is portion sizes and calorie intake. I know we are supposed to eat until we are "satiated" and not full. Which is what I do. But I'm afraid my portion sizes are not big enough. I've been keeping active, so want to make sure I'm taking in the right amount. Good luck to you!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
