2 week follow up with doctor

At 10am this morning I had my first follow up visit with Dr Shapiro. Tomorrow I will be 2 weeks post op. By going off my consultation visit, I am down 25 pounds. They had me listed at as 359. I am currently at 334. Dr Shapiro stated that the weight loss right now isn’t a factor. The weight loss will mean more at 3 months post op because that is when my body will be fully adjusted to the surgery.
I got my staples removed. I hardly felt a thing while Dr Shapiro was removing them. I felt little stings but nothing I couldn’t handle.
Dr Shapiro has put me on a soft foods diet for the next week. I have a few options that I can eat. The foods that are allowed are the following:

Cottage Cheese- 1% or Skim *I am unable to use fat-free because the sugar content is so high.*
Light Vanilla Yogurt
Canned Peaches or pears
Eggs -*whites only, more tolerable than the yokes, I can also use egg beaters*
Oatmeal, Old fashion slow-cook style *needs to be very thin consistency w/ skim milk*
Cream of wheat (thin consistency)
Applesauce-no sugar added variety

In addition to these foods I still need to get my 64 ounces of water in a day. I am not able to drink any liquids 15 minutes prior or 60 minutes after a meal. Drinking can cause me to be too full and or cause vomiting. It will also push food out of the pouch prematurely.

These foods in a variety sense will be eaten in a 3 meals a day format. Each meal needs to be at least 5 hours apart. For example, if I eat breakfast at 8 am, I will be able to eat lunch at 1pm and then dinner at 6pm. Each meal should take me 15-25 minutes. I should eat until I am comfortable. Also, breakfast should be eaten within 90 minutes of waking up in the morning.

This diet will last for the next week. I need to keep a log. I will call the doctors office in a week and find let them know how I am doing. If all is well they will give me more food instructions for the following week. If that goes well then I will be able to get the drain tube out in two weeks.
