I am 10 days out and today the protein drinks just aren't holding me over. My stomach is growling. I want scrambled eggs so bad. My doctors appt is tomorrow when most likely I will be released for purées. Am I bad if I start eating them tonight?

My drs food plan is:

2 weeks pre-op:

clear liquids and protein shakes

Post-op:

Days 1 & 2 Clear liquid (same as pre-op)

Days 3-14 Full liquids

Days 15-30 Purees foods & cottage cheese, refried beans, pudding, etc.

Day 31 forward - Transition to regular foods as I can tolerated!

Sounds like there is a bunch of us in the same stage and along with you, i want to remember it is just a short stage. I am fighting the temptation to experiment with what i can tolerate but that seems like it would defeat the purpose of this whole thing.

Every doctor has a different rule, to how many days on full liquid after sleeve surgery. My doctor tells me 1 week after.

Im having the sleeve on aug. 11th. Starting my pre-op diet today monday, fluids and 30g of protein, to shrink my liver. I'm excited that the Sleeve surgery is finally in just 1 week, after doing all requirements from Optima Health, for a whole year.

any other sleevers in august out there?

I chose to do liquids for a month now I am clear for the third stage choosing to stay on soft foods for one month maybe

each program seems to be different. 2 weeks liquid, 2 weeks puree, 2 weeks soft, done. I am sure they have their reasons. soon it will all be over, and well worth it!!!

They are I just chose to go a month . Like right now I am choosing to do a 2 month of soft food plan . I can go to the new diet of crab shrimp and chicken but I want to see how I do for another month

I'm not allowed pureed food until after week 4.
