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

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
