I'm one week out from surgery and I'm so ready to eat again, I can't hardly stand it...last night I almost blended up a piece of the homemade pizza I made for my husband last night! The protein shakes are starting to repulse me, soups too. How will I survive?

This totally made my day. I haven't laughed this hard in awhile. It's comforting to know I'm not the only one sick of post-op liquid diet. I got sleeved on 7/28 and so far have lost 20#. I have a lot of energy but I need more liquid diet ideas. Im so over it.....I keep thinking maybe my Dr will let me start purees sooner than later. Thanks all for sharing.

OMG! This post just saved my life! I am 1 week out of surgery (8/8) and have had a pretty good recovery, but is am craving foods like crazy! I know so much of this is my head taking, but man, I didn't expect this part to be so hard. It's harder than the pre-op was for me. So glad to hear it will pass, but thank you so much for bringing this up!!

Also, as hungry as I am, I am having a hard time getting more than 3 ozs of Protein in at a time, so I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to eat solid food if I tried. Does anyone notice their hunger lessen the protein they get in?

Also, SAVORY SOUP RECOMMENDATIONS!! Everything Is sweet!!! I want something savory!! Help!!

Hi guys, I had my surgery on Tuesday, so today is day four after surgery, my doc has said to start puréed diet already but I'm actually feeling quite satisfied with the liquid / Protein shake diet so I'm going to stick with it for at least a full week then introduce a puréed soup once a day for a couple of weeks and see how I go. I've lost 9lb already !

I went to a restaurant with my partner yesterday and sat and watched him eat a full meal, have a dessert and a big frothy sweet coffee. I had a glass of Water, cup of tea with skim milk and sweetener and not for one moment felt like eating. I also went through a Macdonalds drive through today and picked up a large Big Mac meal with coke for a friend and found the smell in the car horrible, again, I didn't have any desire to eat !

I hope this lasts !!!!!!!
