What are you planning to start with I did the ricotta bake but added chicken in there and blended it it was good way better then a shake granted I like mushy food in general

So I was cleared today to start purées they said I can have 2oz portions I couldn’t even finish that anyone else experience this

This is what my surgeon is recommending for me to do has anyone had it and what exactly is it I have not been able to find much information about it

So sorry for your pain and I’m glad to see you are getting better did they tell u why you had blockage was it a side effect of the surgery or was it something different

So I’m proud to say Sunday will wrap up 3 weeks and I have not cheated mentally I’ve had good days and bad days the bad days I had I was on my period and I was just a mess I’m a special case normally pre op liquid diet is 2 weeks I am contemplating eating actual food Sunday then jumping back on but idk if I’ll actually do it

I’m having surgery the same day currently on week 3 of my 6 week pre op liquid diet

I’m going in for my band to bypass revision on the 26th I can’t wait

The issue is my BMI is really high and he wants me to lose 50 pounds before surgery at the end of the day I did this to myself It’s just a struggle knowing I’m almost done with 3 weeks and that I have another 3 weeks I was mentally ready for 2 weeks not 6

Let me tell you’d I just finished 2 weeks and goodness I feel like I have been to war yes I know that’s dramatic to say but it has been such a mental battle especially knowing that I’m on a 6 week liquid diet the last 4 days have been extra hard aunt flow came to town and good god all I wanted was food and to nap all day and I couldn’t do either one of those things and no one else in my life understands my struggle so I guess I’m just here to vent and to tell anyone else that it’s not easy but you can do this just take it day by day Side note I chose premier protein as my shake and I drink 5 a day I find that cookies and cream and chocolate are horrible and the caramel and chocolate peanut butter are really good I also do half vanilla with half caffe latte that’s also really good bananas and cream is decent strawberries and cream is ok and peaches and cream is meh I just ordered cinnamon roll I hope that one tastes good

I’m on the 26th as well good luck

Congrats so excited mine is on the 26th

Surgery day is April 26 and I started my liquid diet today I have a very high BMI I can’t say I’m really hungry since it’s 5 shakes a day one every 3 hours I definitely think my struggle will be mental just wondering anyone else had to do an extra long pre op diet?
