Who knew Cream of Wheat could taste so good! LOL I also found the Campbell's Cheddar Cheese Soup to be quite yummy.

LOL, so true. Those were both foods I ate when I got the OK. When I could eat a bit more solid stuff I started adding tiny pieces of broccoli to the Campbell's cheese soup. I still eat that. It tastes so much better than soup that already has broccoli in it.

I am 2 days post op. I am so sick of broth and gatorade and juices. I want some cream of wheat so bad!!! I don't know if I can make it until Tuesday!!! Ugh!!!!!

You can make it Steven!!!

I LOVE Cream of Rice. I still eat it about three times a week. Breakfast is always difficult because I am real tight but the Cream of Rice always goes down fine.

You can do it......hang in there. I felt the same way. I'm sorry if I made you hungry. Stay strong!

I'm looking so forward to cream of wheat, I think it may be my breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I'm so ready for some real food!! lol. All of these food commercials are driving me crazy!!

Steven, here's a bit of motivation to help you make it through: After my surgery, my surgeon had me on liquid diet for THREE WEEKS!!! No pudding, nothing creamed, mushed, or pureed. It was either "liquid you can see through" or Protein shakes without anything added to it. Three longgg weeks of liquid misery. Absolute hell. You don't need to ask me how that first "real" meal tasted when I was finally able to move ahead! LOL!

Hang tough, guy. You'll get there.

Steven, maybe this will motivate you. I have to wait 6 months to get surgery. I've been in the "process" since January. I haven't gotten a date yet and I have 6 months pre op diet to go through. I have to try to diet but make sure not to lose too much weight. I am still binge eating, I still feel out of control. I'd give anything if I could get a doctor who would put restrictions on me that I would HAVE to stop eating. Feel fortunate that you are more than on your way to a healthier you. I'm not telling you this to make you feel bad just to help you put things into perspective.

Good luck..but you'll make it!
