Sick of liquids!



Recommended Posts

Tomorrow is my 2 week post-op appointment and I am so excited to have something that isn't liquid!! Wondered if anyone had any favorite ideas for the "soft/purée" stage. A scrambled egg sounds like filet mignon at this point! . I had my RNY on 1/25, which was a conversion from a very unsuccessful and complicated vertical banded gastroplasty which I had done in 2010. Nothing but problems with that....reflux, choking, vomiting. Hoping to feel better and get healthy now that I have the RNY.....

I have my 2 week post op on Friday and I have the same question. I am so over liquids!! I had the sleeve. I, along with you, will be patiently waiting for ideas from others.

Baked ricatta is divine ..... rich, flavorful, like pizza without the crust. Baked ricatta [emoji39].

I had surgery 1/25, because I was able to do so well on liquids, with very few prepend my doctor cleared me for soft foods a few days early. chicken cut up really fine with light mayo and light seasoning is great. tuna with just a tidbit of Pickle Juice and light mayo. My one piece of advice is easy slow. Super slow. Like, drag it out an hour! Otherwise....you'll regret it. I know it can be exciting to have something other than liquids but you will probably still need Protein Shakes or powder in your food, we just can't eat enough to get in the recommended amount.

I had mine on 1/24 and I agree with others. My favorite is the baked ricotta and I just mashed it with my fork and chewed it really well. It's the best! Good luck.


How do you make this baked ricotta y'all r talking about?

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
