I hate them too. I have to stick with it though. I cant take the risk of a leak.

You can get a leak if you eat? What about pureed? Omg please tell me more about this so i can hang in there a little more

Everyone feels this way. You're almost at the pureed phase. Keep up with the program, it's very important.

My program was as follows;

2 week before surgery - Meal Replacement shakes

Day before surgery- Clear Liquids

Post-op

Week 1 -2: liquid diet

Week 3: pureed phase

Week 4 - 5: soft food

Week 6 and beyond: all food as tolerated

The time feels like forever now, but you'll be on soft foods in no time.

Your new pouch is at a higher risk for leaks until 6 weeks post op.

I know it sucks. Just hang in there.

If you go too fast you can cause a hole between staples or displace the staples which can lead to a hole and a leak. You dont want this...its no good.
