neesh

well soup isn't so bad becuase it's still liquid. I have been cheating on my full liquid diet. I had rice and chicken me and a friend shared a plate and boy was it good. Don't cheat though try to stick it out. Everyone is different I was ok nothing happened, but like I said soup is fine.

Yes I had this feeling when I drank a protein shake like 6 days after surgery. I wasn't supposed to drink it, but I felt so so hungry so I drank it and I think too fast. I was full for a very long long time as well. It will pass just be happy your full and not feeling the starving feeling.

I was ok while eating it, but never again the spicy is too much. The next day I paid for it on the toilet ha ha ha. It stayed down there other way though I didn't throw up or anything, but will not be eating it again :thumbup:

Hi all I was just wondering I had my surgery last wed the 14th and im now on full liquids til sunday. My husband is making pepper soup and I wanna eat the broth from it, but im wondering if it will hurt me.

I had surgery 5 days ago and im starving I cannot take this crap anymore. I want to eat eat eat I can't even eat broth anymore I refuse. I have been drinking and eating popsicles. I was about to eat a waffle, but grabbed a popsicle instead. Man this is like torture I swear.

Yeah I started full liquids yesterday and pureed I start on sun. I had clam chowder soup yesterday minus the claims and potatoes it was good and fulling. I have also cheated I had a fish sandwhich and micky d's and took the top bread off. Then today I had 2 chicken drummies and some collards greens for lunch at work. They had a potluck I couldnt resist. Now im back on track I want to eat some pepper soup that my husband made, but I don't know if its ok since it's spicy.

I am 6 days post op and was going through hell I am still on Clear liquids no Protein shakes nada. So today instead of eating something bad like a burger or something I just had a slim fast shake and now im feeling the stuck burp feeling as well. It isn't that bad, but I wish it would go away. I feel better then with hunger pains and starving I can say that. I never thought I would be so excited to eat some damn mushy foods lol lol. The soup itsn't that bad like everyone said it will go through you, but we all have to focus and work hard. I know and feel your pain im going through it right with u now. The other day on here I thought I was gonne cry and go crazy because I wanted food so so bad.

Thanks all for your support. Today I was starving I didn't have nothing. So I said let me at least drink some crystal light and a lot of water before I get deyhdrated. I did that and after my stomach was growling so bad I was feeling week and went and made me a slim fast shake. I am glad I did it helped a whole lot, but I think I drank it too fast because now it feels like it's stuck in my chest and I don't know what to do. It itsn't that bad, but better then the hunger pains and weak feeling I had. Yes I am only on clear liquids right now my first appt to the dr for follow up is thurs thank god. Then I am sure I will be going on full liquids for 3 days then so on. I cannot wait til this part is all over with. Banster hell is the worst part of this whole band thing it can make you go nuts.

Yeah I know it's not right, but I am just so hungry right now. I just cant bing myself to drink any brother anymore and im getting tired of koolaid and crystal light as well. This sucks

Oh my gosh im starving and im sick of broth and liquids. How did you all get through this period. I know im not going to cheat on it as I am scared as hell to even think about it, but I want to cry I wanna eat something so bad. This is killing me. I have to b on liquids all the way until Thursday my surgery was this past wed and before that I was on liquids for 10 days.

Thanks Enchanted your right I been home watching my husband cook and just sitting around I need to get a book and read and do other things. Lord knows I can't wait to get to mushy foods

Don't know, but u need to ask your dr and see them before your band slips.

This is so hard for me I haven't had a meal, but I have still been taking bites of food when feeding my son. My hudband had bk chicken sandwhich yesterday and I took two bites and boy was it so so good. I have my surgery on wed the 14th friday I checked the scale and I lost 10 pounds so far. I will check tomorrow to see how much more I have lost.

Yes I do feel guilty that I cheated, but AGAIN right now it's hard cuz I don't have a band and not eating for 10 days is hard. Ok timmmers since you know so much then tell me how the people that didn't have a pre op diet and the people that did cheat get the band.

Thanks for the encouragement ok813 I needed that because right now I don't wanna hear anyone trying to be mean. I am not in the mood for all that yes I read here some people that has cheated with big meals the day before surgery and still got banded. So I will just go along and hope for the best wed. Thank you.

Yeah ccweeks you could of kept all that to your self. Anyway I have to do all liquid diet tomorrow no shakes or soup broth, but I am starting that today.

I never stated the pre op was to loose weight.

Right I have no medical conditions I mean I do weight 340 as I just lost 10 lbs I have high blood pressure that's about it. I think they are just following what the clinics beariatric team does with all patients. A friend of mine goes to the same clinic she is smaller then me and had to do the liwuid diet for 10 days as well. I see on here some dr dont require it at all some do and some have very different diets to follow I don't understand. My dr says it's to shrink the liver so that it won't be in the way of the stomach while putting on the band.

I go in for surgery wed and im not excited anymore either now getting a lil scared, but ready for it to be over with.

Right I understand the band is a tool, but right now I have no band and on a liquid only pre op diet. While having the band I will not only have to eat/drink liquid so I feel your statement is not correct. When u have the band U can eat food pre op no food basically starving so I don't feel that just beacuase a person can't get through the pre op they won't succeed with the band.

Geee this was much easiser while I was home on vacation is when I started. Now that im back to work today this is so freaking hard I wanna cry. I have been drinking my shakes and water today. I am going to get me some soup and drink the broth from it, but im sick of drinking chocolate shakes. Sorry I meant pre op diet.

this is my second day on my liquid pre op diet. I have a headache and have drinking carnation shakes all day. yesterday I did slim fast there both boring and the broth is nasty as hell. I guess I will just be on shakes for the 10 days this shit is really hard for me oh my gosh, but I will for sure be sticking with this because I want my surgery. I was feeding my son today hamburger helper and I did have about 4 bites though. I won't do that again.

I have been I can't lie, but it has only been like bites of food a few days no meals or anything. I just hope that doesn't mess anything up for me. This is really hard for me. I have also lost 10lbs in 4 days im now on my 5th day.

Yeah im struggling I keep finding myself cheating taking bites of food here and there. I havent ate any meals or anything, but as im feeding my son I take bites some days. This is my 4th day and all I can have is soup broth, carnation or other protein shakes water crystal light that's it and this is not right at all.

Right I would love to have a salad right now. This other girl also said she can have healthy choice soups. All I can have is liquids I wish.
