hey, you will lose more weight on that stage than any other. and since you just had surgery and you have now cut 85% of your stomach off, that's why you have to do liquids for 14 days :) we all have done it..... believe me, i so totally understand. but this too shall pass. hang in there!

I got sleeved on Aug 20 and believe me I feel your pain , but you have to be focused on the overall purpose of the surgery. If you want great results you have to follow the diet . Look online and search various post -op diets and get helpful tips on what you can and cannot do. Every doctor has his own diet. Good Luck !!

your stomach went through some major trauma during surgery! it needs time to heal. A liquid diet is the best thing at this point. No stress on your new stomach and on your fragile staple line. It will be over before you know it.

When I got annoyed with my liquids I just thought about the damage I could cause to my sleeve if I don't follow the rules. Since no food is worth a leak, infection, and my life I held on until it was the proper time to progress to solid food.

The time will come. Be patient:)

I can say that I am terrified of causing a problem post-op. The pre-op liquid diet is one that I do not truly believe is fully necessary, because I have seen so many variations, and even no diet required for some people. Today I had only 550 calories, though I got my protein in, and I thought I was going to pass out, so I had some food. I'm 6 days out and counting...so I hope I'm going to be ok. If they have to close me up, they have to close me up and I'll keep trying, but I doubt that will happen because 90% of the time or greater, I am on liquids.
