I am 4 days post op and I can eat about four and half oz of cream based soups. I want to know if that is normal. And not all at once over a period of 40 minutes.

I am 4 days post op as well and I am able to eat about 1/4 can of cream soup, which I'm sure equals about 4.5 oz. what was your directed post op diet?

I can have cream based soups, SF jello, SF ice pops, low fat cottage cheese, etc full liquid diet. I was thinking 4.5 oz was a lot

I can't wait to get to cottage cheese. And typically, your sleeve can hold 8 oz of fluid. So you're not overdoing it.

wow, I thought the first week was just clear liquids. You ladies are doing good.

I think the term "clear liquid" just varies from doctor to doctor. I've seen some people allowed protein shakes in the first week, where as I've got to wait after the first week. My cream soups though are extremely thinned out haha. I prefer to play it safe.

I'm 3 days post op. I can't have cream soup yet. And oh how I'd love to!! Clear broth is not that tasty. But I'm doing well and am able to get all my fluids in. So I'm thankful.
