Vsg on 8/2 surgeon graduated me to creamy consistency Foods by 8/4.

I was sleeved on 8/2 and surgeon approved full liquid diet on day 8/4.. most of the threads I'm reading say clear liquids for one week then progression into next phase..did anyone skip the clear and move onto full liquids such as protein drinks, yogurts, cream of wheat?

I only had like 24 hours of clear liquids and then I moved on tho full liquid.

I had 10 days of clear liquids after. The one thing that I noticed right away with WLS is that each surgeon has their own ideas and plans for pre and post op. It gets a bit frustrating if you are trying to find someone who has a similar experience but I just followed what my plan was and what I felt my body could handle. I had to go back a phase or two at times when my tiny tummy didn't feel ready.

My surgeon didn't place me on clear fluids before or after, just full liquids for a day before surgery and 2 weeks post, then on to puréed for 2 weeks and then mechanical soft, whatever that is. I was sleeved on 2nd too! Hope your recovery is going well. Mine is good but I'm kinda bored. I did try Unjury cream of chicken soup flavor protein and it's awesome! A very nice change from sweetness.
