Yes, my stage 2 is everything on my stage 1 (clear liquids) and I can add in skim milk and strained, low fat creamed Soups. I've been doing this since Thursday and supposed to last for 14 days total or until I see the dr. for my follow up.

​This is pretty common. It's just called different things. You should be able to have Protein shakes, right? That should make up a lot of your intake at this point. Be sure the Soups are strained / thinned out a little bit. No chunks at all (some soups have chunks). Blend them if you have to in order to get the chunks out. Otherwise, just keep doing what you have been - Protein Shakes, broths, sugar free popsicles, etc. I know it is tough but it will be over soon. You just have to power through it. Pureeds will be here soon and trust me you will welcome it!

Hmm. That is strange. So how are you supposed to get Protein? Hopefully someone else who had a similar plan will weigh in. Sorry I couldn't help!

My point maybe I should call my nut and see what's going on.

Yes I think I would. Maybe (hopefully) they just didn't explain correctly? Protein is needed to heal so I don't know how you can go without it. Good luck! Let us know what they say!

@@lachellove - I'm sorry it is so confusing. :( You have enough to deal with without this confusion! Wait until tomorrow and then make sure when you call you tell them it is urgent so they call you back! :D Lots of programs are different, so maybe there is a reason behind it. Hopefully you can sleep well and will get answers tomorrow! HUGS!

@@lachellove - any word from your NUT today? Been thinking about you. I got my day all messed up because I had to fast for labs and then they had it wrong and had to go somewhere else, blah blah blah. Anyway, I felt awful all day and was never able to get a shake in (yet anyway) and just kept thinking I wasn't sure how you were getting through without them!

Hmm. Yep. Agree it is strange. Glad you are doing ok without! This is the first day in 12 weeks I have gone without a shake. It feels quite strange like surely I have forgotten something important. :D

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
