I am 1 wk post op also and was able to start mushy food today! I tried scrambled eggs for lunch......wrong choice! I threw up some, and the rest has been sitting like a lead brick in my poor little sleeve! I only ate 1/2 of 1 egg! Well hopefully the refrained Beans I will be having tomarrow will sit a little better for me! Good luck

You ladies are so lucky, my surgeon waits 2 weeks before advancing to pureered. I called the dietitician this morn and asked if I could have mash pot, because i need more then Jello and pudding.....she said sure as long as they didnt bother me. She was actually shocked I was ready for them. Granted I can only eat a tablespoon or so but daym they were delish!

      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.
