I'm going from Clear Liquids to full liquids tomorrow.Wondering if you all limit yourself to 1/4 cup servings of liquids or does that not come into play until the next ( puréed/mushy) stage ?

It really depends on your doctor's instructions. They all seem to have different ones.

I'd give his office a call if you're unsure.

I never measured my liquids. I think it takes more liquid to fill you up since they just run through you. Just have enough to feel satisfied... well, at least as satisfied as possible since liquids are not very satisfying.

I never measured my liquids either. I'd eat 1 small can of Cambells Tomato Soup (with 1% milk) a day, broken up into 4 meals. I drank a 1oz medicine cup of Protein shake every hour (or actually whenever I remembered was more like it) and all the Water, crystal lite, Jello, and sf popsicles I wanted.

To this day, I can't eat Tomato Soup. Thank God I found Progresso Tomato Basil Soup, cuz I'm gunna be back on the liquids for 3-4 weeks after my sleeve revision surgery in June. Luv me some Tomato Basil Soup! I would probably break 1 can (2 cups) into 4 meals also (1/2 cup each meal). Nothing like tomato soup for breakfast!

Good luck! You'll be happy when you can add mashed potatoes (at least I was. Could've bought stock in KFC!)

Per my doctor's instructions, I was to drink/eat 1 oz of full liquids (including water) every 15 - 20 minutes throughout the day. Of course, I would always recommend checking with your own doctor. His instructions may vary.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
