Cyber-shy

I've been browsing this site for a few months and decided to become a member this past month. I was sleeved on the 21st of Sept. The first 24 hours were the worst but things got better one I took the swallow test and was able to eat. I'm very happy with my decision to have the sleeve and I've been reading everyone's success stories and looking at the pictures and it has given me such motivation. But I'm not really one to meet people or join in because I'm super shy... even on the internet. But I know I need to venture out and meet people because I really need the support. I'm becoming very bored with the full liquid diet and would love some suggestions, stories and/or support. Thank you so much! :biggrin0:

    Hi!! Good for you venturing out and congrats on your sleeve. So full liquid stage is pudding, soup, and yogurt right? I think it's the most challenging because you get tired of the sweet stuff pretty quick. For me trying different cream soups really helped because of their rich savory taste. Cream of wild mushroom, tomato bisque, cream of asparagus, and even cream of

    brocoli were all good to me. How much longer are you going to be at this stage? Just focus on how these lovely light meals are contributing to your weight loss and bringing you one step closer to goal. I don't feel I grasped this during the limited eating phases, but ultimately this is

    the time to get your mind to focus on the fact that food is primarily about nourishment.

    I wish you the best of luck and welcome to the loser's bench!!!
