Diet for post surgery regular food



Recommended Posts

I just bought two cookbooks—Fresh Start Bariatric Cookbook and The Gastric Sleeve Bariatric Cookbook, both by Sarah Kent. I haven't made anything from them yet, but have looked through them and am excited about making several of the recipes.

Also, the website automatically linked the recipes page in my previous post: https://store.bariatricpal.com/blogs/recipes

I haven't looked at this before, but it probably has some good recipes, too!

I know that that handouts given to me by my surgeon's office said to limit grains/breads/pastas/starches the rest of my life. Some sites they recommended for food ideas included here at the recipes page on Bariatric Pal, skinnytaste.com, hungry-girl.com, and livingafterwls.com. My handouts said to make 1/2 of your plate always Protein and eat it first, then 1/4 of your plate non-starchy veggies and eat them second, then 1/4 of your plate carbs and eat them last.

Where should I look for diet or menus to follow after my 6.months. I feel kind of lost. I just eat everything but 4 oz. Please any advise.

Are you relying on your surgery restriction and eating all foods in smaller portions for weight loss?

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      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!!
