    I was the same way. I could always eat or drink more than I should for that stage. I have just stuck with the portions I was supposed to be eating and I have lost 50 pounds at 4.5 months post op and the weight is slowly but surely still coming off. You should be just fine.

    Don't worry. If you search the forum, you will see others who have had the same experience as you. In those cases their restriction hit either when they started purees or when they went to solid foods. Glad you are doing well!

    Don’t get worried. I had mine in 6 July and doing fine. I thought after my first Greek yogurt I did not get it but the weight still comes off.

    I too a week after mine could handle 4 oz but think about that ?? 4 oz ?? I could drink 6 sprints in an hour and half before surgery and eat hamburgers !

    you’ll do great !

    Tomorrow is my day. I'm not nervous AT ALL.
    I've always looked for "signs." Like if there were bumps in the road as I was trying to do something, I tend to think it was God warning me not to do it. There have been no bumps -- so, I'm thinking God's got this. LOL
    Today was all the phone calls from the people wanting their money, anesthesia and hospital. My debit card was declined even though I've got the amount needed. At first I thought it might be a sign --but guess what, the girl on the phone had VGS back in 2013. She just so happened to be my same weight and height at the time of her surgery. We talked and talked. So --I took that as a good sign. It turns out my bank puts a cap on how much you can debit in one day as a safety measure. I had to call the bank and tell them what was going on. Then they had to get approval. So it has taken all day to pay the hospital --but I'm expected there at 10:30 tomorrow.
    School starts on the 9th of August. I'm hoping I will have had enough down time to teach without complications.

    Hey. How are you feeling? I was done today as well. A little sore. I had to do the overnight stay so I’m in my bed right now. Have a bit of a headache that doesn’t want to quit. And these gas pains are terrible. Overall not to bad.

    The thing that cracks me up about this process, is that these programs seem to all assume/are designed as though all overweight people have become that way because they/we all love eating Cheetos dipped in melted chocolate and drinking Big Gulps full of queso-topped Coke Slurpees with fluffernutter chasers. Some of us—perhaps even many of us—eat normal savory, natural foods like chicken and vegetables, don't eat out, and don't love drinking melted ice cream on the sly, and try to avoid chemicals in their foods. I do wish there was some kind of accommodation for these eating patterns. We can be fat people too! Unless I have it all wrong, and we are meant to train ourselves to crave a good melted ice cream chug and a handful of s'more dip as we learn "better eating habits" after surgery. I just find it funny.

    I’m on the food parade too!! My surgery is July 20th and my liquid diet starts the 6th. So I’m having my favorite foods and bc I will be on a soft or puréed diet for my 40th bday we are celebrating with a cake this weekend. However going shopping for my liquids is going to be a reality check I’m sure!!!
