  1. So does purred foods come after full liquids or is it the same as full liquids?
  2. My NUT told me I can eat anything that can be blended in a blender on a full liquid, but I'm still questioning somethings. Did anyone blend chili and if so did it cause problem? At this point I've been living off of pudding and don't think I can do another bit without getting sick. I can't to soups they make me gag I'm very picky so I'm running out of options and I have a week before I go on to soft food so I really needs some ideas.
  3. I went to the dr just to be sure and my calf on the left was a little bigger on the left, so I was send for a ultrasound and everything came back ok so I was very relieved but still wasnt able to walk on it for a day.
  4. Why does everything have to be sugar free? Is this something we have to live by or is it something during the stages of food?
  5. Well since I can't get ahold of my NUT what do you all think about cheese soup on a full liquid?? I'm starving and the only thing I can even stand to eat is pudding but pretty sick of it. Tomorrow will be a week since I've had surgery. And would love something different.
  6. So I had surgery on the 26th of July and today I'm so tired all I want to do is sleep and lay around. I try to do things but when I get up I feel so weak that I just need to sit down. Also since surgery I have had this really sharp pain in the middle of my abdomen it comes and goes all day, it is kind Of like a gas pain but worse. Has anyone else experienced this? I was up all night with this pain.
  7. When getting this surgery I was worried about complications like blot clots and leakage ect. When do you think we can stop stressing so much about these complications and just focus on being healthy?
  8. I had surgery on Tuesday and I'm having a pain in the back of my left calf but it's only when I'm walking around. I called the dr office and the nurse said it doesn't seem like any complicicarions but I'm so worried it could be something.
  9. When doing my blood work, I found out I have celiac. Disease. I am so stressed about getting sleeved and also trying to make sure I don't eat gluten. It seems to me that almost everything has gluten, it has got me down.
  10. I will look into the isopure. Thank you all so much I'm not so stressed anymore.
  11. I've only tried The whey protein I can't afford much right now, but I was told about a protein shot I'm not sure what it is I'm going to look into that. Also I have never liked milk so I'm sure that is my problem it just makes me sick.
  12. I'm not sure I believe it is Whey protein but I got it at walmart. Im almost to my surgery day so I'm just going to drink water and hope Ill be ok.
  13. Just curious if it's the protein that shrinks the liver or is it the weightloss? I've lost 7 lbs since Tuesday but im mostly drinking water and not drinking the shakes.
  14. I started my liquid diet on the 19th of July and will be having surgery on the 26th. I really am worried and hope I can get some help with my question. I have a hard time keeping the shakes down,they are so nasty and it doesn't help that I cannot stand milk. the first day I did ok. The second day I was only able to get one down, third day I couldn't handle it ran straight to the bathroom after drinking the shake. Today is my fourth day I have decided that I'm just going to drink water and that is it. Even thinking about drinking broth or eating jello makes me sick. So my question is will not eating at all shrink my liver? Will not eating cause problems with my surgery? Please help!
