I would expect to wait about 90 days before you can eat "normally" - meaning new normal not old normal

Currently 5 weeks out my diet drastically improved following a sleeve.

I was able to not chew food like baby food (I still chewed well and went slow) and was able to expand my diet a bit.

The plan is around 8 weeks i will incorporate nuts and raw veggies/salad and I should be pretty happen then.

I think 8 weeks you should be eating pretty decent.

I feel your pain ...I'm a bit hungry but really more just wanting to have something other than 6oz of protein shake every day...and broth and sugar free ice pops...will be thrilled when I can have a scrambled egg or some pureed soup or even Greek yogurt which I don't love lol...

I go to the surgeon tomorrow and hopefully get my next stage to start on. :)
