    I agree with Berry78, just focus on the requirements/goals first and foremost. Do whatever you can to get those 60g of Protein and 64oz of Fluid. Remember, Protein Shakes like Premier Protein count towards your "fluids", so does your Soup.

    Also, I noticed that pudding would make me feel fuller really quickly and made it harder for me to reach my goals at first, so just put the puddings aside for now and perhaps switch to sugar-free popsicles?

    I hate to be the bearer of what you may consider to be bad news, but a large percentage of those who have weight loss surgery experience a stall or stalls. The first stall can typically happen within the first few weeks, google 'three week stall weight loss surgery' and you will find a lot of info about it. A couple of things to remember you won't be alone in experiencing a stall, most of us have been through it and it not an out of the ordinary event even when eating low calories. If you adhere to your post op guidelines you will get through the stall, it may be a week or two (or even longer) but eventually scale weight will catch up with your body changes.
    Remember you want to lose fat not just weight. Scale weight doesn't always reflect fat loss. Get out the tape measure, start capturing body measurements. Also look to non scale goals and measures to capture your success in fat loss, health and fitness improvements. How far you can walk or swim, improvements in blood tests for cholesterol, fatty liver etc. Improvements in blood pressure etc etc, clothing sizes reducing and so forth.
