I am one week post op and starving to death, okay not really but I sure feel like it. I can't take anymore broths and getting very tired of SF pudding. What else is there?

Can you have yogurt on full liquids? I found SF popsicles to really hit the spot because CHEWING is involved! :laugh:

Also, sf Jello and for the same reason.

Isopure (over ice is great), yogurt without fruit, all kinds of Soup broths (homemade are the best) try my lentil soup recipe in the recipe section here.

I added applesauce in the second week as well as nibbled on Baby Bel low fat cheese until it was liquid in my mouth. Actually Cornell Weight Loss center has bariatric clears only while their sleeve patients are in the hospital and they go home with a diet of soft and pureed foods. So I had a copy of that and incorporated some of their suggestions into my diet after the second week at home.

Hope this helps,

How many days has it been now for you? I have to start my pre-op diet on Tuesday...ugh! My doctor said that I could have all of the above plus fat free cottage cheese and raw vegetables! So I am going to be nibling on carrots, cucumbers, tomatoes with salt, and lemons with salt...mmmm! I know it's not much but atleast it's something to crunch on, and my doctor said salt and pepper is fine, along with any other kind of spice you can think of. I hope it hits that hunger spot for you...good luck! Oh yeah V8 juice is ok too, and might be a little filling!

Since Stoongal referenced Cornell Weight Loss Center...I thought I would look up what they had to say. Again....please follow YOUR surgeon's post-op orders but if variance is allowed, Cornell has a nice plan. Very helpful ideas, food logs, etc.

Here is the link: Enjoy!

      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.

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