Who wants to be surgery buddies? My surgery is Feb 20th!

S/p RNY 2/7/18 and i am not feeling so great lately. I started soft foods. I think it is increased gas but idk it is discomfort when eating. Almost feel like going back to puréed foods or liquids. I am ok some day but today was a tough day. Almost feel nauseas and with a belly ache and I have not over ate nor drank enough liquids. I did overwork myself yesterday. I push myself to exceed 5000 steps a day and go up and down my stairs at least 4 times within the day. I feel like I am exhausted but physically however today is different I feel exhausted and sick. Anyone having similar symptoms?

Omg wish i knew of this group earlier.. my date was the 21st

Instead of cake you could do a sugar free pudding cake with layers or frozen yogurt ice cream that you make out of yogurt yum! Maybe a taco party idk if you like tacos but you know beans cheese soft puréed meats yum!!! You won’t be able to eat much, but you know tacos means party lol. I am sure anything you do will be great... it’s your birthday celebrate your success!!!

Nice.... going to check it out

How is everyone doing so far?

I'm almost 4 weeks out and so far so good. Still struggling to meet my protein goals but man it was nice to finally eat some solid food after 3 weeks of liquid/puree.

Make the ricotta bake that' s on one of the threads. Sounds so good even non-WLS would eat it

This is really good I made it myself but after eating it 3 times I couldn’t stomach it.

So, not that I have the answers, but this is what I was doing. Maybe it will help?

1Brekky - decaff coffee and 9-10oz Premier Protein as creamer (23g P)

2nd Brekky - 1 egg softboiled (6g P)

MS - Egg Salad (6g P)

L - Egg Salad (6g P)

AS - Yogurt/Cottage Cheese/Applesauce (15g P)

D - 1.5oz dense protein of some kind (9g P)

BS - Yogurt/Cottage Cheese/WF Blueberry Syrup (10g P)

75g P for the day! Voila!!! It's a lot of meals, but in the beginning we're only supposed to eat 1/4c of food max. As our volume increases, meals decrease. And you're only taking in 23g of P from protein drinks even only 2-3 weeks out?

Hope that helps. Just word: MAKE SURE your poop chute is cleaned out from all the stuck-in crap from surgery or you will have constipation/blockages like nobody's beeswax!!!

Im 2 weeks out, just started purees which im so happy about!!!!

Ive been getting plenty of fluid but just barely enough protein. Working on the protein... Been doing great. Going to start going for daily walks.

Fluffy is there any way of varying the ricotta bake so,our friend might not tire of it so fast? An idea that came to me, salsa instead of spaghetti sauce and taco cheese instead of mozzarella. Would this firebird fly? You're usually more imaginitive than me, and yes i still enjoy and still trying,your recipes.
