Hi Jules2 Yes I had a Bypass, I cooked the eggs in scrambled in the pan, but now that I am on soft texture I also eat them done as an omelette with a pinch of cheese in. I hate the texture of blended chicken I found it always went grainy. I stopped eating anything with chicken in blended. I did...

Hi, sorry for the late reply... I haven't measured by weight, I just eat what I feel like using a little teaspoon, at first I was eating maybe 12 teaspoons. Now I'm onto soft foods so I am eating more, However, I make sure that I only put the amount on my plate/bowl that I know is ok to eat, as...

I can have egg on my pureed diet, softly scrambled, But tbh, If you cant blend things there isn't much more you can have other then soups, yogurts, and mash... I would keep trying different things in the blender.. for instance I don't like tomatoe things in the blender, but anything with gravy I...

I also found making a pan of scouse for the family and then blending it was nice... Scouse (incase you don't know) is potatoes, onions, carrots boiled in a beef broth (I use oxo), then beef added to the mix, I used canned stewing steak as it is softer and you only need to add this 10 minutes...

congrats, I had mine on the 11/02/2019, so were not that different in time, I found the first week I lost less and I think that is due to general swelling, but mine picked up in weeks 2 & 3. I cant stomach slimfast, so im mostly sticking to eggs for my protein at the moment, cant wait for next...

12 days post op, Still feeling good, not had any issues really, no sickness, wind pain has all gone now, however, I still get wind when I eat. I am struggling a bit with the food because I am no really finding soup and blended food appetising anymore lol. But all in all I still feel good. My...

So I'm am 12 days on from by Bypass surgery... and I am getting very board of soup and pureed food lol. My diet was a bit different to most, I was straight onto pureed food (no lumps) the day after surgery. I am supposed to stay on this for 4 weeks, then go to soft/mashable foods for 4 weeks...

HI Guys, 3 days post op, difficult to get all the medication down, not because I struggling to swallow or anything, but because my timing are off, also I have a chewable vitamin tab that I need to take, I dreading the taste, has anyone had these before? Think I may leave it until the afternoon...

1 day post surgery. not feeling to bad, gas pain is a bugger. was dehydrated so had an extra drip bag but they are happy now. A bit suprised that i had yoghurt for breakfast. only a couple of spoons tho. the first night was tough, because i was tired and was being monitored each hour or less...

Oh Right. I has the first one with Phonix in December, then I got told my date. I only went to the first one before I was given a date, but im sure each on is different. x

Hi , Sorry I forget to come on here lol. I have just started my pre-op diet, a bit hungry but not to bad, I'm on a 800 Cal diet. Glad you got your date Jackiesfatplan, it come round quicker then you think.

Soooo I finally got a date today.. Yay, 11th February 2019. Its a bit further away then I thought, I was given the impression at the assessment that the appointments would be mid January, but id rather have one in Feb than none at all. Was told that because I suffer with Heartburn, I would need...

I'm sorry for not getting back. I live in Skelmersdale, I've been passed over to the Phoenix Health Care group. I had my assessment this morning, everything went well. You have a 40-minute presentation, which is basically a refresher course on the surgeries and then 20 mins with a consultant and...

Thanks, I will give it a go, They sent a diet sheet over for the re-op, which is just an 800 cal a day sheet, but a couple of days on the milk diet will also help.

HI I was referred for WLS in July from Aintree hospital, at the time the referral was for the Stoke hospital. I rang up in at the beginning on November and they confirmed the current waiting times 2 10-12 months, meaning it would be May-July 2019. Bummer. Then on the 30/11/2018, I got a...

Got My first appointment through for the 11/07/2017! Yay x

Thank You, I'm in for the long haul but it would be nice to see what other people's experience is like within the same area :)

HI Jo, Can I ask how long its has taken you to get to this point, I'm just stating out with Aintree and trying to get an idea of how long it will take to get to your stage? Thanks A x

New to the Forum, but I though I'd see if anyone has experience with waiting times for Aintree from 2017. I have just called to get an appointment with Aintree, and am wondering how long I might be waiting for my first appointment. I'm hoping for Surgery eventually and my Doctors have been...
