I just had my sleeve done on April 25th. I'm always worried I'm not doing my post op liquid diet correctly. Not sure what I'm doing or how I'm feeling is normal. This week has been a true testament of how weak I really am when it comes to food. food is always on my mind and I feel sorry for myself even though I don't know if I really want food or not. Hoping it gets easier.

Hey I had mine done on the 26th and I feel the same way! I have a craving to eat but not really hungry. I even dream about food. I feel like such a fattie. I'm getting tired of all the liquids but wouldn't dare try to eat anything as its still pretty sore swallowing.

Does you doctor have you on 2 weeks liquid diet post op? My instructions say not to try puree food until the end of week 3. I've been seeing some people post they ate pureed food in the second week. I don't want to chance it but was just curious if my doctor is being overly cautious.

just remember your goal and don't eat besides if you do you will probably throw up because your new stomach is only ready for liquids right now it will get easier after about 4 or 5 months but at that time you will probably only eat baby food puree baby food is what taste the best, blending yourself never could find the right smoothness then you usually go with the Protein shakes I did that for about 8months I lost 80 lbs very very happy exercise I gave myself the best gift a new life and I will not I mean never go back to being fat heck no I look fantastic and feel fantastic I go to orangetheory and work my butt off too wear the little clothes size 10-12 use to be 18-20 252-172 stand at 5'11 tomorrow morning 5:30am gym best workout early before work good luck don't sweat

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

      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! 😞
