I had my VSG on Friday 8/17...currently on 7-10 day liquid diet. I can tolerate all that I am intaking I.e slim fast, Water, crystal lights, pudding, Jello. Has anyone else experienced this? I haven't thrown up..no nausea I feel great. Lord I hope my tool is working. I don't want to have to get anything readjusted (if that's even possible with the sleeve) talk to me. Yes I know we are all different. I need this weight to drop. Oh & I am not complaining at all!! I'm glad I'm not sick, but just would like to hear if this is common.

At 7 to 10 days out I was on mostly Protein Shakes. At least four of my meals were Protein shakes, one would be Soup (pureed) and one would be yogurt or pudding.< /p>

Hola,

I was sleeved on the 6th of August and I can drink has fast has I like hot or cold no problems. I have no problems at all getting my shakes down. If I didn't awake with gas after mu surgery I would have never of thought that I was even sleeved. I even take tablets and this is not a problem either.

I was just like you.... and even on Full liquids day 4 no problem with any liquid intake - Protein, pudding or any liquid quantity although I did feel like I had enough pudding yogurt type stuff after about 2 oz.... we are just some of the ones who have it easy. Checked with 2 doctors and both said it was not a problem liquid goes \ through sleeve quickly so you are fine. When I started pureed... tuna, cottage cheese.... yep I had been sleeved. Totally limited intake.

I was almost a month post-op before I puked the first time (it was way too greasy). Some have an easier time of it, it doesn't mean your sleeve isnt' working.

Yup, there are some that have it fairly easy. I had no gas and woke up thinking it had not been done. Went home very next day from the hospital. Never had issues taking in liquids. Guess Just lucky. I am a slow loser so maybe that balances things out. Enjoy 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.
