I had surgery last Wednesday Jan 2. I see a lot of conflicting info regarding diet and I'm ver confused. My Doc says 2 weeks Clear liquids, 2 weeks puree then soft regular foods. Im Hungry! Im drinking all day, I'm still carrying about 15 pounds of Fluid, I am ony taking 9 G protien a day (paper says 1 serving protien drink per day at 3 week le vel so i assumed same now..although tis not specific). Drank 52 oz already today of my 48-64 required. Why are there so many variations on the diet in the first few weeks...makse no sense!

Each Bariatric center has their suggested diet based on their education, past patients, etc. The end result for all of us is the same-to be healthy. If you are that hungry, get a hold of your dietitian for their recommendations. Good luck. In the end you will be glad you did this.
