RNY FIRST FEW WEEKS

 Hello OH family, just trying to get myself prepared and everything put in place for when I have my procedure the end of next month....did most of your first week meals only consist of protien shakes or what other meal replacement items was involved and which ones did you love...i know everyone taste buds was different and will be...but just trying to get some ideas....i read, read, read, on this website daily.....so i will check back for any comments or you can inbox me....Thanks a bunch and I can't wait to join the losers bench....

Congrats!  My favorite was Campbell's Healthy Request chicken noodle soup
broth.  I strained out all of the noodles, chicken and veggies.  Threw some fresh
cracked black pepper and it was SOOOO much more tasty than regular old chicken
broth....nut approved this, of course.

My favorite was some pureed homemade soups I had made previously....beef lentil with chutney and turkey/sweet potato.   I love these soups normally and pureeing them didn't change the flavor, just the texture.  The plus: Both are high in protein.

Good luck!

My first week at home I was on full liquids, so protein shakes, yogurt, etc.  The second week I was on pureed food.  You'll need to find out what your surgeon's plan includes.

 I think it was in my second second week, but my husband made a couple delicious soups with Bob's Red Mill 13 Bean Soup Mix. He cooked the beans until they were very soft and I ate slowly and made sure all of the beans were completely mushed in my mouth before I swallowed.

My first week was clear liquids.  Broth,sf jello, diluted fruit juice, water.  Second week I was on full liquids (yogurt, pudding, protein drinks.

Thanks for the repies I sure do appreciate it....I get the plan my doctor wants me to follow on May 30th....and I'm so exciting I can't wait...I been doing the clear liquids just to get a feel of what is going to be like....so thanks....I can't wait to be on the losers bench.....
