No, full liquids. But I keep hearing about other people who get to move on to the puréed stage much quicker. I am soooo tired of Protein Shakes and plain yogurt. I just want something hot that isn't broth lol.

I feel your pain, I was sleeved on 1/28, and according to my after care directions I got I am still on liquids till this coming Sunday. Then I can move on to soft foods and purees..... I like my Protein shake, but I am ready for something with a different taste and more filling. I go for my checkup tomorrow and I am going to ask if I can start early......lol the only thing I can do for now is wait it out.....

I have 21 days of clear liquids and move to mushies on day 22. My dr is conservative so therefore...so am I. I have had an amazingly successful process so far, so intend to do exactly what he says, when he says. Tonight is my first preop support group meeting and it, among a ton of other activities, keep me busy so that i do not find myself thinking about what i dont yet get to have. This is just me doing what i think is right and i know not everyone feels driven to follow their doctor's orders, so to each their own. I just figure that i had a very dangerous relationship with food before, so why rush it now. I want it to be the fuel i dump in my engine to make it run in top condition, not the stuff i focus on every waking moment anxiously awaiting my next bite. No thank you mame!

Can't even imagine what your feeling but look at things this way; Would you rather something your not supposed to have and have a bad reaction? or just wait and hold on a little longer and you can have it all again in moderation...time, it heals everything :wub:

Yes I'm still on my full liquid phase...and I can have runny sugar free pudding, watered down low fat cream soups...although I haven't really been eating those because they fill me up and don't have much Protein...I can also have yogurt which is really delicious. I get the low fat yogurt and mix in my nectar vanilla torte Protein powder...I eat about a half cup throughout the day...it is really yummy.

I'm pretty sure you can have all that stuff too!

I am on full liquids till Monday (will be 2-weeks worth). My savior has been the strained cream Soups. I add the powered milk to the milk I add to the Soup to increase the Protein. I can only get about a 1/2 cup in but it satisfies the savory need since all my Protein Shakes taste so sweet!

I was sleeve 1/28 also and my doc wont let me go to puree/soft foods until next Monday which means waiting 2 full weeks. I am mentally remaining strong because I have to remember in my case poor eating habit when I got in my 30's and being an emotional eater is why I had to have surgery so Im fighting to stay strong and I keep busy. So you are not alone on waiting 2-3 weeks before moving off liquids. Good luck and dont give up.

I'm in the UK, on day 15 of the liquid diet and was advised to do four weeks. I'm so bored of the diet but my surgeon advised me I can have Soup as long as I Water it down, it needed to flow from a cup like water. This has helped as I've been able to try different Soups but some days I barely eat as everything makes me nauseas. I'm still experiencinf pain down my right side from the internal stitches but on the plus side I've lost 24 pounds since the pre op diet :-)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
