I was on clear liquids the first 3 days then I moved to full liquids until day 8. At day 8 I moved to puréed foods.

Please don't eat anything that u shouldn't as there are reasons why u are on liquids at this time. Your stomach is swollen and healing but is numb. So eating any solids is risky as u may not feel damage being done.

Feeling hungry could actually be acid not hunger - if u haven't got acid inhibitor meds, PPLs, ask ur doc.

There have been a number of threads on how to get protein in without shakes in the early weeks. Do a search, you will find some great advice. I wasn't able to drink shakes, I used fortified milk (skimmed milk with added milk powder) to add to soups, to drink on its own, to water down yog etc to get protein in - and it has worked for me :-)

Hang in there, lots of us were where u are, just don't rush to solid goods too soon - this is a marathon not a sprint and u need to give ur body time to recover. Good luck!
