I just had surgery this past Wednesday, August 3, 2011 for the weight loss procedure the vertical sleeve. I attended sessions with the nutrionist and a support group before hand. Every day I am feeling stronger and more healed but am cautious as to what I can take in. I am taking Calcium and a regular every day Vitamin and what ever other medications that I am on. I am now at the stage where I can have Full liquids but am unsure of what that consists of. I was doing proteing shakes and bars just before the surgery but now my taste has changed and I literally gag trying to get a Protein shake down and I do know how important that is to my diet. So in addition to my Vitamins and medication can anyone tell me what types of Soups or liquids other than these Protein Shakes that I can have? I do have the belching and gas issues with certain things I have tried too with this procedure and just need some good support right now. <a href="http://www.TickerFactory.com/weight-loss/wAHjc73/"> <img border="0" src="http://tickers.TickerFactory.com/ezt/t/wAHjc73/weight.png"></a>

I want to thank everyone for their input and I have taken to the sugar free pudding when needing something to settle my stomach and I forced down a protein shake too today.

I was sleeved recently too on August 4th and have the same issue with belching. Also trying a recipe the nutritionist gave me a combined black beans, salsa and chicken broth and I pureed this into a liquid black bean soup which my papers state I can have only the effect during and after were terrible gas pains and tons of burping. I have tried the protein drink only that is making me nauseus so I am at odds with what I can have right now?
