What are your foods on your stage 2 list? I only did Clear Liquids for the day of surgery and two days following; since Saturday I've been on full liquids (which on my program includes cottage cheese, refried Beans, etc.). I haven't had any issues at all. Just measure measure measure and eat SLOW!!

I never was sick, never threw up, had no nausea. But, boy, do doctors differ on post-opt programs! Mine is clear liquids for TEN days, then ten more for full liquids, then mushies, then solids as you can do them. I don't know why there is so much difference in these things. You would think that there would be a standard already for the sleeve procedure. Good luck though, and welcome to the club.

My group has us going to stage 2 fairly quickly as well and I transitioned fine. I still gurgle sometimes, but I can eat tuna, eggs, cottage cheese, yogurt, puree meats if they have lube of some sort and Soups very comfortably. I can get 1/4C down before I feel restriction if it's chunky and 1/2C down if it's smooth like yogurt and creamy Soups.< /p>

Edited to add that I have never gotten sick of felt nauseous until I ate lobster bisque last night.

For me the only nausea happened in the first 3 days. I would guess that you're OK if you haven't had it yet, you probably won't. Unless you eat something that totally disagrees with you in the next stage. Like others said just take it very slow and easy. Take one tiny bite and wait a couple of minutes to see what your stomach is going to do. Then take another.. so on. It's scary but it will be fine. Good luck!

I haven't gotten sick, I am 10 days out, fluids are getting easier by the day! I don't get to switch to stage 2 until 2 weeks.

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support

      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.
