Have you tired Dole's Real fruit popsicles? They are little high in sugar than sugar-free popsicles but are more tasty than sugar-free. Plus they count as fluids too! I've gotten them at Walmart in the freezer section. Just check the nutrition label.

Hopefully, you can move onto to full liquids soon and be able to eat thinned oatmeal or grits.

Good luck!

Heat up some V-8, puree some salsa in the food processor or blender and mix it in. It is a very tasty and satisfying Soup during the liquid stage.

I also made some of the old diet cabbage Soup - chicken or veggie broth, a can of pureed tomatoes and cabbage sliced thinly. Cooked it til the cabbage was tender. Then gave it a whizz with my stick blender. I made it sweet and sour by adding some vinegar and splenda.

Depends on what your protocol is. If it's Clear Liquids you need, then you can try Syntrax Protein shakes...Fuzzy Peach or Roadside Lemonade are my favourites. You can also try Isopure which has 40g of Protein per bottle...though 4 days after surgery it would probably take you all day to get through the 20 ounces.

Water...always a good option and weak herbal teas. An Crystal Light...and that's about all I can think of for now.

I'm four days post op also on full liquids, and Dr said I could have yogurt,pudding, egg drop Soup

But I haven't been hungry since surgery, and it still feels like I could eat anything if I tried too,

you can have canned Soup but strain it, Lipton cup of soup cream of chicken is good, and you add a little more Water to keep it thin. But this helped take away the hunger sum. Protein Shakes sipped on also helped.

Can you drink Milk or Skim Milk ? Its a thought.

I am also 4 days post op. Today was my first hungry day. I had some diet Jello and a Protein shake. I just joined this group for support. I don't know anyone with the Lapband but I do know multiple people who failed with gastric bypass.

I look forward to getting to know everyone.

Welcome Aboard !

Again try some Soups but strain them.

Pop cycles S.F. Or fruit cycles help.

Iliked Lipton cup of Soup Cream of chicken.

Good tastes, and you make it how you want it.

It helped kill the emptiness.

Your Protein shakes should help the Hunger also.

Good Luck, Shirley.biggrin.png

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
