Ok I can't lie ! I did . I am 10 days on shakes cottage cheese yogurt cream style soups ! This Has been the first day that I am soooooooooooo hungry.. HELP

you can do it!

Are you on full liquids or mushies. I'm just curious because I start full liquids on Tuesday and wondered what it might consist of besides shakes and cream soups. Sorry your having a hard time, I can relate though.

I know I can ! And I will. Thanks

When I started the mushies I also thought I would starve to death & when I went to the Doctors for my check up I told him I felt like one of those cartoon charaters that if you look at them they look like a steak or piece of chicken so I told him I was ready to bite anyone's head off and to look out cause I was starving lol needles to say he made a joke and hurried me out of his office that day ,when he usually takes his time with me , just thought I would share,so I hope the newbie bandsters get through this phase it does get better.

It's okay!! My first cheating session was a cheez it too LOL!! I took about 7 bites of the little thing and mashed each one into thin air before I swallowed it. I'm not saying it was smart to do for either of us, but I will say that you are not alone and you are normal and you will do better next time =)

Just say no to cheese-its I have been stuck on Cheese-it more time that I would like to admit!

I will be keeping this in mind as I eye the kids snacks :/ yikes. I don't want to get stuck

The way I ate those few cheeze it's would be impossible for a stuck LOL.. You talk about mush !!! But it happened its over they were yummy and I have moved on. Thanks for sharing ladies happy Friday

I'm 10 days post-op and I crunched 4 cheez-its into my soup just the other day and let them get super soggy before eating the soup. I chewed and chewed and chewed just to be safe... I asked my nutritionist if whole wheat saltines/crackers were allowed since technically they got mushy in your mouth, and she said YES, except they're carbs so it's not exactly ideal.

As much as I loved munching on food with texture finally, I don't want to go overboard.

It's very hard right now with being hungry. Good idea on the crackers. but like you said its carbs. i am def doing to stay away from them for a while. I go for my 2 week post op on Tuesday. I will be able to start introducing more foods in to my plan. Very excited for the next phase.

Why don't you try a small bowl of low calorie ice cream?? Alright I know it's not ideal but if you just have that as a little treat just to have something sweet and different.. It's definitely kept me sane!!!! Just untill your aloud proper foods... cxx

I wish it were sweets that I crave but for me it's carbs ! Love them ???œ
