Clear Liquids Going Down Well

I am just shy of 2 weeks post op. I feel like I can drink more at a time and liquids continue to go down just fine. I'm adding sf jello and tonight tomato soup. Just wondering if that's typical- liquids going in well- not really filling you up? Is this just a sign I'm ready for full liquids?

    I haven't ever felt full on Clear Liquids. Cream of potato soup (the liquid) I felt like I ate an entire meal!

    I'm so excited to have tomato soup. Technically I'm suppose to wait to see doc I Tuesday but I think she did that because I was dehydrated. I truly feel ready for full liquids. I'm going crazy. I think it's better than caving to all of cravings right? Normally I wouldn't go against the doc but I think this is ok....

    I am started blenderized/puréed food Wednesday but I have tried some this weekend (last night & today) bc I haven't had any issues with the all liquid stage. What's 2 days going to do? I would have stopped if I felt any discomfort or anything.

    Ya plus I hope she will put me on puréed stage- I'm dying for refried beans and cheese ( in a blender I guess) and cottage cheese

    My doctor has me moving to full liquid 2 days after surgery. I wonder why every doctor does different pre and post op diets?

    My doc focuses on liquids because with this surgery dehydration is a very high risk. And wouldn't you know- I was re admitted. So because I don't see her until Tuesday she had just said just stay on clears with Protein shake exception. I'm glad I have her :). But I do thinknil ready. Not all her patients wait as Long as I have but I think she wants me sip sip sipping :)
