Was banded 3/25 - started mushies today - did not slip up on liquid stage at all - for mushie stage - my doctor has me eating 1 oz of mushies - 3x a day - with liquids and Carnation Instant Breakfast shakes in between - was RAVENOUSLY hungry today:eek: Also returned to work today - wondering if that has something to do with it too!

Definitely ate more than 1 oz of mushies for dinner - just so hungry:frown: Anyone else going through the same right now? Happy to have found these boards!!!

Stomach is also KILLING me today - basically have a sedentary job but was moving around a lot...

Just hang in there.....we can do this......I went to my seminar last night...Have my band sometime 1st of May... I can't wait.....You just hand in there and i will have a special prayer for you.....You go and i'll be right behind you......

I'm on mushies.. feel more restriction in the morning then the rest of the day.. crazy! But still doing ok with the meals

Having a hard time with mushies. Went back to liquids. I find I am less hungry with the liquids and feel more in control. My surgery date was 3/24. Started mushies last Friday.

Good luck to you!

I will start my mushies on Saturday. I am really tired of the liquids. My doctor allows us to have soft foods such as meatloaf, meat balls, soft green veggies on the next phase/mushies...Is that what you all are allowed. I certainly don't want to over do it. Will start exercising next week. Gang hand in there. We are doing this together!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for all the feedback, everyone!!! Hugs to everyone - we can do this!! From reading other responses and looking at other threads, seems like my doctor's office is pretty conservative in terms of what we can eat for mushies...

I was much less hungry on liquids also - but I guess that the natural progression of my appetite coming back is making the mushies not do much for me...

Found out this morning - my first fill is April 30th!:redface:
