Jello please help is this normal



Recommended Posts

I was just sleeved on the 19th I am still on Clear liquids I don't drink much yet not even the total of 64 oz

But I can consume 1 Jello snack in less then 5 minutes is that normal?? Is that ok??

It doesn't bother me at all. If I did that with beef broth that would kill my chess and give me those pains as if I'm eating to fast

Do any of u eat or can eat 1 jello snack that quickly??

I'm the opposite, I can drink Water easier than I can eat Jello. I can only get about half a cup of jello down before I'm full. I'm weird though, so take what I say with a grain of salt :P good luck!

I probably COULD eat my pudding in that amount of time, but I try my best to eat slowly. I am so excited when I eat pudding or Soup (because it is like eating normal food) that I eat at least 1 cup. Worried that I am abnormal or something wrong because I feel hungry most of the time, and can consume so much. My post-op check up is tomorrow, and hoping for the best, Would hate to think that I have messed myself up in less than 2 weeks!

I was sleeved on the 19th as well and left on full liquids. If Jello is easy on your tummy, eat it up...it melts like a liquid and would count as it as well. Good luck!

I was wondering the same thing

I can eat a half a cup of Jello and start hiccuping.

But I can eat the whole cup of yogurt.

Unless I hiccup I'm not sure I can tell I'm full??

And I am not getting anywhere close to the correct amount of fluids or Protein...

Jello is considered a liquid, you won't feel full restriction until you get to denser Proteins, mushy foods. U can consume more liquids than solids because liquids go right through u. Don't worry u r ok. Just take ur time and breathe between bites.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
