Have you tired Dole's Real fruit popsicles? They are little high in sugar than sugar-free popsicles but are more tasty than sugar-free. Plus they count as fluids too! I've gotten them at Walmart in the freezer section. Just check the nutrition label.

Hopefully, you can move onto to full liquids soon and be able to eat thinned oatmeal or grits.

Good luck!

Heat up some V-8, puree some salsa in the food processor or blender and mix it in. It is a very tasty and satisfying Soup during the liquid stage.

I also made some of the old diet cabbage Soup - chicken or veggie broth, a can of pureed tomatoes and cabbage sliced thinly. Cooked it til the cabbage was tender. Then gave it a whizz with my stick blender. I made it sweet and sour by adding some vinegar and splenda.

Depends on what your protocol is. If it's Clear Liquids you need, then you can try Syntrax Protein shakes...Fuzzy Peach or Roadside Lemonade are my favourites. You can also try Isopure which has 40g of Protein per bottle...though 4 days after surgery it would probably take you all day to get through the 20 ounces.

Water...always a good option and weak herbal teas. An Crystal Light...and that's about all I can think of for now.

I'm four days post op also on full liquids, and Dr said I could have yogurt,pudding, egg drop Soup

But I haven't been hungry since surgery, and it still feels like I could eat anything if I tried too,

you can have canned Soup but strain it, Lipton cup of soup cream of chicken is good, and you add a little more Water to keep it thin. But this helped take away the hunger sum. Protein Shakes sipped on also helped.

Can you drink Milk or Skim Milk ? Its a thought.

I am also 4 days post op. Today was my first hungry day. I had some diet Jello and a Protein shake. I just joined this group for support. I don't know anyone with the Lapband but I do know multiple people who failed with gastric bypass.

I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Welcome Aboard !

Again try some Soups but strain them.

Pop cycles S.F. Or fruit cycles help.

Iliked Lipton cup of Soup Cream of chicken.

Good tastes, and you make it how you want it.

It helped kill the emptiness.

Your Protein shakes should help the Hunger also.

Good Luck, Shirley.biggrin.png

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
