Hi,
Can anyone help me out?
I am a little over 2 weeks from my Gastric Bypass and I am having difficulty going from Phase I liquids to Phase II Pureed food.  It feels like my system isn't handling it.  I am not worried so much as it is only 2 weeks, but can anyone give me advice on how to handle to transition.

I would really appreciate any help on this.
Thanks.

Maintain Phase 1 and add one thing from Phase 2 every few days.  This is your body telling you, "take it slowly".  Don't eat Sunchips.. that is a private joke for all my peeps LOL...
Good Luck.

Thanks Everyone,

Not to worry, wasn't even thinking of trying sunchips.

thanks for the advice you guys have given me.  I was doing so well until Phase II started.
Jello stays down along with all the liquids, but the thicker stuff, even when I puree it, not working to well.

Agree with the "Sunchip Queen",

Maybe try your liquids a little thicker.
Can you eat jello, try it and see how that feels. 
Then Greek Yougurt,
Perhaps a cream soup with your protein power added to it,
I had success with Tuna and mayo!!(It did take almost a hour to eat a can!!)

Sun Chip queen lol, I love it.
I never actually puree my food, I had grated hard boiled egg with mayo, cottage cheese, yogurt, tuna. I would have very little, 2 tsp, and wait an hour or so and have a little more. It doesn't feel like you are having much but each week is better.

I agree with everyone's advice, take it slow and add thicker textures as you are able. At 2 weeks I think I was eating cottage cheese, yogurts, creams soups, jello. I also added unflavored protein powder to anything that it would mix into to ensure I would get my protein. At this stage I had difficulty getting in enough fluids and even now have to remind myself to drink more. You're doing great and as you go on it will get easier! 

I agree with everyone maybe try a little slower i remember at 3 weeks tried a poached egg ate maybe half and i suffered for a couple hours foamy at the mouth that turned me off right away just eep on trying little things and even that some days it will go down other days it wont at all good luck  rny4\26\11

My only advice is to trust your own instincts. Your body will let you know what it is ready for. Remember, the nutritionist's suggestions are only guidelines. Your body is the best judge of what you can have. I like the idea above about staying on the Phase 1 diet and then every other day trying something from the Phase 2 diet. I know that it seems like you will be on liquids forever, but you won't. A month from now you will be able to eat most foods, just in very small amounts.
