Hi Everyone! I had my surgery last Monday 7/17. I did one week clear liquid diet. I thought I could start soft foods as tolerated. My post op instructions were NOT clear. I had applesauce, sf pudding, puréed chicken soup, hummus and even 3 saltines twice (I know shame on me!)
It wasn't till I talked to my doctor today that I realized I was suppose to do clear liquid diet for 2 weeks. I've handled the good well, 2-3 oz total at a time. I'm stressing now bc I worry I've stretched my pouch. Dr.Kelly said I wouldn't be hungry but I feel hungry. Frustrated and worried!!!!
My questions are:
Did anyone feel hungry starting week 2 post op?
Did anyone eat soft foods week 2 post?
Dr. says I haven't stretched my pouch BUT I'm concerned! Maybe it' wasn't small enough to begin with? It the size of an egg he says.
I'd love anyone thoughts,opinions and experiences. TY in advance!
