@@NewMeesh I'm feeling pretty good just anxious to move on from liquid to purées. Thanksgiving was hard but not as hard as I thought it would be. I have barely had any pain just gas gets to me at times. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Had surgery on November 14th and I'm having so much trouble because I just keep thinking of all the things I want to eat but can't or won't be able to for a while. I'm tired or broth and almost can't even stand the smell of it . Trying to get in my Protein shake but am barely able to get 1 down a day. Any tips for liquid stage?

Thank you all for the encouragement! I do think a lot of it is that I want to eat certain things and I can't which is frustrating but part of the process, I know. My Protein and liquid intake is improving little by little. Hoping to move on to full liquids tomorrow, fingers crossed that goes well .

I also went through amerihealth caritas and had the same requirements. I was scared I wasn't going to be approved because I didn't lose the 15 lbs my surgeon required before the surgery but I was a approved. Good luck just follow the process and if you are denied your surgeon can work with you to fight it if he determines you are a candidate for the surgery. Good luck!

My nutritionist stated that what I could have was: broth, apple sauce (1 cup a day), sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicles, yogurt, and of course Protein shakes Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
