Day 4 lol. I have 3 weeks before solids but it's pretty much whatever I can tolerate.

My schedule is:

Week 1 - clear liquid

Week 2 - full liquid

Week 3 - puréed

Week 4 - soft/mushy

I hope to lose a ton of weight in the first month!

My prescribed diet was

10 days Clear liquids

10 days full liquids

10 days mushies

Then slowly progress through full foods with red meats coming last.

But what I actually did was about 5days on each.

Don;t rush it. I tried and felt awful, vomited etc. Go slow....you have the rest of your life to eat regular food.< /p>

I'd have to agree with not rushing it. I'm not one to be a "goody-goody" and I tend to push the envelope but with this stuff? No way! Having been a nurse and seeing first-hand how the risk-takers suffer was enough for me!

I know the temptation is strong. I was on here telling EVERYONE how hungry I was and on Instagram telling people I'd KILL for a toasted cheese sandwich, but I knew it wasn't worth it. So, stay the course. If your doctor feels that it's time to advance you, so be it. Until then, feel free to vent to us!! :)

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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
