Horrible experience with breakfast this morning



Recommended Posts

Hello. I am 3 weeks and two days post op. Overall my experience has been extremely positive.
I usually have an egg for Breakfast but decided to switch it this morning. About an hour after having my usual coffee mixed with Premier Protein and a bit of low-fat milk and later 16 ounces of Water , I had maybe 1/4 cup of oatmeal with milk with one strawberry and 5 slices of banana. Wow! It all went right through me VERY QUICKLY and straight to the toilet . It was traumatizing ! I can’t figure out if it was in the end too much milk or the oatmeal or maybe the banana ? All I know is I never want to experience that again ! Thankfully I was home. I can’t imagine experiencing that nightmare at work .
I have had diarrhea on and off since surgery but nothing this quick or overwhelming to my body .
Any thoughts or advice ?

It was sugar

add more Fiber and avoid sugar (fruit)

You can test out fruit again in a few months

I also had this response to sugar. It was from the sugar in a Protein Shake. It hit me after about 20-30 minutes and I was sick for hours. Cycles of diarrhea, dry heaves, then being very faint. I NEVER want to feel that bad again. It made a believer of me when it comes to sugar!!

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!
