This liquid diet sucks I will be so glad to graduate over to yogurt and oatmeal an grits . I am 5days post op my nut said I could move on to the next phase thurs and I am ready . I need texture....

Me too. I am a week post op and can't go to next level for another week. Never thought I would look so forward to yogurt.

I feel you! I just moved to pureed foods and it is so much better! Hang in there!

Thanks.

oh boy that's probably why some have a hard time drinking water once their one month out.....well sorry guys continue with your success

Totally understand. I get puree starting tomorrow and I'm so ready. Between pre and post it's already weeks of liquids (and not as many as some so trying not to be to whiny, LOL).

That said I have been able to make my liquids using yogurt and will continue those since they're yummy and will keep the Protein up. The ready to drinks are getting really old though.

Enjoy Thursday!

I feel for you totally. I've been having a rough time with artificial sweeteners. I get these obnoxious headaches. Even the crap they use in the shake mix . Not fun to deal with when you have a 14 month old running you ragged! I can start purées Saturday. Never thought I'd be so excited for applesauce, grits, and other mushy food. I did get permission to eat butternut squash soup after the first week, thinned out with fat free milk. I also found unflavored protein powder to add to it. I can get down 1/4 cup, takes me about 10-15 minutes. I saw a recipe with broccoli, skim ricotta cheese, and roasted garlic I'm anxious to try. It looks super good. The funny thing with this surgery, food looks and smells and even sounds good. But. I still don't feel hungry or even really want it.

I feel your pain. It takes a lot for me to get a whole shake down. It's starting to almost make me nauseous. I have a hard time getting a lot of water down too
