Has anyone ever gave in to food post op? Im only a week out and Im suppose to be only on liquid. I had a few tiny bites of things, chewed them up really well. Did I ruin everything you think? How can I fall off this wagon already!? Its only been a week! I think my problem is, i havent seen any weight loss prior to the nibbling. So, I got discouraged. Dang it! I feel like ive failed myself, my sleeve, my body. Urgh!

I know it's hard especially being around food or people eating, but don't give in! I'm 8 days post op so I know how you feel. If anything (and you're feeling up to it and able to get all Protein and liquids in) call your NUT see if you can advanced to the next stage, worst they could say is no. I called mine waiting to hear back but I have had a pretty smooth recovery and have been tolerating my liquids really well since 2 days post op but if she says no then oh well keep going try and keep yourself busy. When you want to nibble drink or if time and situation permit walk, walk around your house, stay strong!

It's a prescription diet given to you so you don't rip open your incisions and cause a leak, not a Jenny Craig diet. I suggest you stick to it for your safety.

I'm 6 days out and I'm NOT having any problems with drinking my Water. I almost feel like there isn't much restrictions. Anyone else experiencing this. I was told that this phase deals with everyone differently and that I'll feel more restrictions when it come to eating solid foods. Please advise

I'm the same exact way. I have no problems drinking liquids either just slips right through, I have seen some people say it's normal for this to happen to some.

It is great if you don't have trouble drinking your water! food will feel differently.

As for eating ahead of time, do NOT do it! Your life is on the line!
