Purée stage ??????



Recommended Posts

that going to vary according to surgeon. I was allowed to start up on purees as soon as I got home from the hospital, but some people (sounds like most) have to wait two - or three - or even four weeks.

Seems to vary a lot depending upon surgeon.

I was on a liquid diet for the 1st day after surgery, then moved onto puree on day 2 for the rest of that week. I'm now on soft diet until the 2 month point, where I move onto normal diet.

I was in the hospital for 3 days for my RNY. I started pureed food on day 2. Day one, just fluids.

As others have said, our programs don't really matter. Your Doc has a program that you need to follow.

Healthcare team had me move to soft foods on week 2. I was able to meet Fluid requirements. I was able to tolerate puréed meat, mushed hard-boiled egg.

I am 4 weeks post-op and in the puree stage however I am able to tolerate some solids and as long as I am meeting Protein goals and not hungry Im going to continue this way! I am supposed to start the soft foods next friday the 11th, which would be 6 weeks post-op.

      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!!
