  1. Oh my gosh I'm going through the same exact thing.. today I'm 2 weeks starting on my 3rd week... I'm miserable and depressed because I'm itchy and in pain and can't eat anything!!! I'm even at a point where I regret getting this procedure done
  2. I'm sorry I know exactly how u feel I want steak.. I feel like crap and wishing I never done this .. I'm an emotional wreck
  3. Yes I tried it yesterday .. they were ok on my tummy ... I'm surprised to hear a lot of people are just moving to pureed wen I was moved to them right away
  4. Thank u ... I tried these aswell and they don't sit well
  5. That happens to me too!! Lol wait til the gurgling stops then take another small bite... hope this helps and things get better
  6. Well u have to eat tiny bits and don't drink 15 mins before and 30 mins after each meal.. heartburn is normal... wen it happened to me I did not eat it again... I hate the protein shakes.. if u can try tuna with low-fat Mayo but don't forget tiny bits

  8. Hey guys I'm Dee 25 yrs old from long island NY ... I started this journey at 269 the highest I have ever weighed in my life!! Throughout the weeks that past seeing every Dr I could think of for a clearance I finally got my confirmation and official date of surgery March 12th.. which also meant the pre oo liquid diet... I tried but my addiction to food and low self asteem my depression and anxiety made me cheat ... few days before my surgery I had my pre oo testing at the hospital where they told me I was at 257.. 12 pounds wow I was kind of surprised . Day before surgery I did only liquids.. right after.surgery was so very painful I had to walk every 2 hrs .. next day I was told I could go home .. first few days home were terrible so much pain and wanting to just sleep it off... the days that followed so did cravings for anything and everything .. I knew I couldn't so I didn't and I won't until I can actually do it.. today I'm at 239 I can't stand the protein shakes anymore I don't want to even look at eggs or tuna or mashed potato ... I can't wait til I can eat a piece of a slice of pizza
  9. Well my nurse coordinator said I need as much protein as possible and mentioned I should be eating that aswell as pureed for the first few weeks before I can start regular food again
  10. Hey guess I'm Dee.. I had my surgery on March 12th... as of today all I've been eating is soups (liquids only ofcourse) sugar free popsicles jello and frozen yogurt, mashed potatoes ... I was told I can have egg salad tuna salad chili .. I can no longer stand the smell of eggs or tuna ( which both used to be my favorite) I'm craving everything but don't fall into temptation ... I need more variety or I'm gonna go nuts!! Any suggestions????
