I am so tired of liquids



Recommended Posts

I was on liquid for 4 weeks. It got easier for me as time went on, but I was careful not to be around people who were eating.

Find out from your doctor exactly what you can have. I was told I could have anything blended so there were no chunks in it. I had different Soups at dinner time and blended the heck out of them. It was important to have variety and not the same thing over and over. I could also have egg drop Soup from the Chinese places and those made it more tolerable. Some places do put peas or

other stuff in there, so I spit that out. I could also have

sf popsicles which I had every evening.

Do you guys remember your first bra?? Ya know how you couldn't wait to get boobs to fill it out so you stuffed it?? (Except me, I went strait to the real thing!) So this topic of being sick of liquids reminds me of the first bras. LOL :thumbup:

Do you also remember when you couldn't wait to start the liquid diet cuz that meant you were about to start a new life?? I guess the NOVELTY of it has worn off. LOL :laugh:

So I don't get banded until the end of May/beginning of June and I can't wait to be on the liquid diet!! I am very happy to know that my doc only requires 2 or 3 days of it before unless you have not dropped the weight he wants (for me only 13 lbs). :lol:

But I am happy to read your posts to be aware of the dreaded post-op liquid diet.< /p>

There are actually some good recipes on this site in the food section for different things people can have while on the liquid stage.

What frustrates me most about liquids (I'm on two weeks for stomach swelling) is that I don't lose weight. Grrr.

That would be annoying. I lost 22 lbs while on my post op liquid diet. Then I lost nothing after that for 4 months.

I tried the refried Beans as well with low fat cheese. I felt like I was dinning on fine cuisine compared to the cream Soups. Mind you I never liked them before. I go to my transition class on Monday. This is required before you move on to regular foods.

      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!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
