This is my first post. 2 weeks in, down 20.4lbs. I feel great but I’m on purées and nothing taste good except cottage cheese, soups and mashed potatoes. I have been having 2-3 protein shakes a day.
Don’t worry about the pain. I had 2 days of pain. Sent home 27 hours post-op and only took 1 Percocet. I had another 2 days of discomfort. Well worth it since I recently became diabetic and know that Diabetic neuropathy or diabetic infections would be so much worse. I let myself get this fat and can’t wait to be normal again.
I'm glad to here that you are doing well in your post op days. You might experience pain for a few days around the area's of incision and you will most probably be given some pain killers for the pain to subside.
Congrats on your 20 week 20lb loss! That's great.
Tastes can change a little bit but it will all come right. Remember it is only 2 weeks since you had fairly major surgery.
Don't be in too much of a hurry to introduce new foods. Just stick to your surgeon plan. Soon enough you will be cleared for all foods and you can start reintroducing foods back into your menu.
