There is an oldie but goodie cheese cake-ish easy and allowable recipe; Ricotta (low fat or fat free) Milk ( LF or FF) And sugar free chocolate pudding. Mix milk into ricotta until slightly soupy then add pudding mix. Now in the past I've dome this on atkins. I measure my 1/4 cup ricotta, add up to 1/4 milk and add T spoon of pudding mix and adjust as needed. It is on my diet and a filling, good healthy mix.

The 3 month thing is new, maybe 8 months ago. We are trying that for my husband due to his work being less then flexible. The pre op diet depends on your surgen. My friend did hers at the same time as me, she was on a clear liquid diet for 2 weeks prior. I only had to do it for 1 day.

I'm learning this sight on my phone. I am learning. Thank you all. I'm glad to hear others have experienced similar issues. I am working on getting my fluids in still at 10pm. I don't want to eat, that feels good emotionally. I am.working at getting protein in but far from the mark so far. My mother brought me a cuisineart stick blender so I will try to mix up something tomorrow that I can just sip all day. I'm learning from everyone's posts ...

Am I alone in being afraid to eat , not due to vomiting, because I won't lose weight?. Today I'm at 200 cal. I made couliflour soup (spelling, sorry) I estimate with milk added.and some cheese it should be 40 cal per cup. I ate 1/4 of an avocato and thankfully that is still with me. I have been worried I would not feel any fullness as on liquids I was perfect. I felt nothing bad, full or twinge etc. I'm still staring at the soup, contemplateing if its worth the calories. My post op weight loss at 7 days was 4 pounds. It was more like 17 but that was iv fluid, solid weight was 4.2. I was a bit flustered. Idk if others counted or did not court fluids loss. I gained 13lbs post op then down 17.2. I won't count that. Do others? Is that why I feel out of place? Random fears.....¦~\

Pittsburgh also, Monroeville area. I'm a revision to lose the next 100+. I had a VBG in 98 and lost 250, gained 50 back. I am 349 at 7 days post op RNY.
