Month out and confused



Recommended Posts

I am a few days from a month out, things are going well, I am getting my Water and Protein. My provider has me moving to full diet this week. I have been so conflicted on what to eat and do, so many opinions.

So I have really just started trying things to see what happens, nothing bad of course but I have tried salad and lunchmeats. Spicy things for some flavor. I just don't know if I am doing wrong or not. I have been assuming if I don't dump or have pain, I should be ok. I have vomited once after eating some turkey a bit too fast, otherwise though, I feel good. Is that enough? Is my body going to tell me if I have done wrong?

So AC , by full diet, do you mean the food for life phase ?the very last phase ? a month post op seems really quick , I’m a month post op and still on puréed. I guess if your stomach isn’t complaining and you’re keeping it down, you have to follow what your body tells you . Have you been given follow up info ? Keep us updated and ask ask ask if you’re not sure . Good luck

Yes, your body will tell you when it doesn't like something. I still get the "foamies" 9 months out with bread, doughy things, soft tortillas, and Pasta.

I had the go-ahead at 4weeks to move to my forever diet.

But my instructs were to follow my dietary guide for quantities, measurements, etc and with tips for success and sample meals. Also had the instructs to try only 1 new thing at a time and wait a few days before adding another new thing. To go very slowly. And if something didn't work, then to try it again in a couple of weeks.

      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!

      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!!
