I had the sleeved, so I'm allowed 100mls of build up/complan/slim fast/ soups with extra protein powder 6 times a day, and then 100ml of squash/ tea / coffee in between. On this for 4 weeks and then purées for 4 weeks

My mum has just handed me in tesco NAS lemon & lime high juice. It's going down well and I'm enjoying it much more than robinsons squash which I usually drink. I've also managed some fruit tea which I also enjoyed And some homemade soup x

That is brilliant!! I made the decision to not weigh myself and just let my dietician do it in March but this makes me curious about how much I will loose
that is fantastic! Is your tomato soup homemade? I made the mistake of eating cream of tomato soup yesterday as list said 'cream of' soups and think I 'dumped' didn't realise it was soooo high in sugar I watered it down quite a bit with milk xx

Oo poor you, what did that feel like?
I had some chicken soup no prob. Taking the a tablets has proved to be a chore n fills me up
can't stand senna, repeats on me n tastes of licorice which I detest. That's needs adjusting lol. Rough days pain n wind wise, much better today. Seams day three s the one to be wary of :/previous bander, revision to by pass.

I stopped when I Thot I was full (which wasn't really that much) and I felt great almost normal (haha never normal me) then all of a sudden I Thot omg I NEED to close my eyes and sleep was very drowsy so I cozied my daughter up on the couch next to me and put a film on for her an I fell straight asleep was feeling quite sick but more over powering was the urge to sleep. It didn't last too long but felt a bit queasy/light headed when I woke up still so I'm guessing it was maybe a mild dump as when I checked the sugar content i didn't realise it was so high! I too am struggling with all the meds. I didn't get any senna tho. I'm on liquids for 10 days then I go to purée I've been told no yoghurts until purée stage so looks like it's soup n juice for me for a while yet. I'm reeeeaaaalllllyyyy struggling with protein shakes
they make me wanna spew. Just to sickly xxWhoo hoo you ! Skinny coming out. I put ON. 10ls with surgery but all water wee n wind lol. It's almost off now and I'm day fours, poor traumatised tum tum :/ less pain today

Hi Lauralee- I decided to weigh myself every Sunday just for my own diary, I'm not one for jumping on the scales twice a day. The soup is tinned watered down, I am going to make homemade this coming week but last week I was managing 1/2 tin for lunch and 1/2 tin for tea. Glad you are doing well post op

Tomato is technically a fruit so much more sugar content, I've avoided it & I've read a few people unable to tolerate it post op. I had these in cupboard:
Mushroom
Oxtail
Spicy parsnip
Sieved vegetable
And I made my own, vegetable, mushroom, butternut squash & red pepper & watercress...
Then you know exactly what's in them Xx
