I ate some melted cheese last night



Recommended Posts

I was so desperate for something with FLAVOR. Something other than broth, friggin Protein Shake or Jello that I literally slicked a couple of slices of cheese off a black hubby was using for a dish he was making, put it on a plate, put in the microwave for 30 seconds and ate that cheese like a steak. I couldn't finish it all but 14 days of Clear liquids is just plain hell.

It was so good. It was Colby. The salty flavor was devine. I did have a little pain afterward but all in all I'm okay. I'm craving salmon now like a muther.

I cant believe you were on Clear Liquids for 14 days! These dr's are all so vastly different! My Dr's plan was clears for 3 days then full liquids until 2 weeks out, then soft foods until 1 month out, then normal food. I keep worrying im going to damage something because most of you guys have a much more strict plan early out. Im almost 3 weeks and all has been fine so far. I quess this is the way he has always done it so i have to trust him it just seems too quick compared to everyone else.

That must be torture to be on liquids for that long!!

My plan is much like b190's. Clears for 3 days, full liquids for 2 weeks, pureed for 2 weeks, soft foods for 3 weeks, then normal foods.

It is so weird how everyone's plan varies so drastically!

Be careful eating something not within your guidelines, it can really cause trouble!

I was on full liquids right off the bat (two weeks) but after about 12 days, I was DYING for cheese, so I had 2-3 little pieces of an American cheese slice, about 1/2" square each, and let them melt on my tongue and it was sooooo delicious. Amazing how sick you can get of sweet stuff, isn't it?

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
