Hi! I just had VSG this past Monday and am now on my full liquid diet. I could barely get creamed soups in during my preop diet and now I have to drink them again for another 3 weeks. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what else I can have? Or any recipes?

My name is Wendi and I'm 40 years old. I've been overweight my whole life and have tried every diet ever invented! Fortunately I don't have a single health problem other than being obese and I wanted to continue that. I was so thankful to hear I was approved for VSG because there comes a point when frustration and hopelessness kicks in when all other diets have failed. I had VSG on Oct 5th 2015 and can't wait to begin my new life. My preop weight was 282.4 lbs and I vow to never see that number again!

Thank you everyone for all the wonderful wishes! My surgery went very well. I didn't have any complications and after 6 days, I feel like I could run a marathon hehehe!

Took me 4 days and I didn't need any help with stool softners.

I was there a little over 24 hrs! I arrived at 7:00 to register and I was discharged the next day about 1:30pm!

The bean and bacon soup sound delicious and maybe just once a day will help me through! Thank you thank you thank you
