Full Liquid Diet Question

[MG in SD 75]

Hi guys. I got sleeved Monday and am supposed to progress to full liquids today. I know the goal of the clear liquid diet was to get in 64 oz of liquid, but my guidelines say nothing about how much full liquid I can tolerate. For example: yogurt or creamed wheat, how much can I tolerate? Anyone know?

I will start with 1/4 cup of yogurt or cream of wheat,if you feel like you eat a bite more go for it. Just listen to your sleeve

On my full liquid diet that starts 2 days after surgery I am only allowed Protein Shakes and Clear Liquids like broth, sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicles, Decaf tea, flavored water.....pretty much what I've been "eating" for almost two weeks. I believe the goal is still 64 oz after surgery although I hear it is hard at first to get that all in. I would not be able to have yogurt and cream of wheat until later, the next step.

I haven't had my surgery yet, but according to our nutritionist "full liquids" consist of things like milk, Protein shakes (the non-clear varieties), watered down cream of chicken Soup with all solids removed, etc.

Yogurt and cream of wheat show up in the following stage for me. Every doctor is different, though.

My nut said to take 2 small bites and put spoon down then do one small spoonful at a time. Can eat up to 1/2 hour and if still not full stop! But u will prob be full before that.

Thx guys. Emailed my NUT and she said start with 1/4-1/2 cup of full liquids and see what I can tolerate. I think everybody's advice would have been fine. I'm just still in week one so I am obsessing over everything!!
