MLCT 9 Posted February 7, 2013 No, full liquids. But I keep hearing about other people who get to move on to the puréed stage much quicker. I am soooo tired of Protein Shakes and plain yogurt. I just want something hot that isn't broth lol. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I go for my checkup tomorrow and I am going to ask if I can start early......lol the only thing I can do for now is wait it out..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
No game 14,437 Posted February 7, 2013 Most people on "full liquids" can have watered down strained cream Soups like cream of chicken. Might be worth a call to your Nut.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moregoodtimes 331 Posted February 7, 2013 I have 21 days of clear liquids and move to mushies on day 22. My dr is conservative so therefore...so am I. I have had an amazingly successful process so far, so intend to do exactly what he says, when he says. Tonight is my first preop support group meeting and it, among a ton of other activities, keep me busy so that i do not find myself thinking about what i dont yet get to have. This is just me doing what i think is right and i know not everyone feels driven to follow their doctor's orders, so to each their own. I just figure that i had a very dangerous relationship with food before, so why rush it now. I want it to be the fuel i dump in my engine to make it run in top condition, not the stuff i focus on every waking moment anxiously awaiting my next bite. No thank you mame!

Debbie1220 6 Posted February 7, 2013 Can't even imagine what your feeling but look at things this way; Would you rather something your not supposed to have and have a bad reaction? or just wait and hold on a little longer and you can have it all again in moderation...time, it heals everything :wub: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LifetimeLoser 208 Posted February 7, 2013 Yes I'm still on my full liquid phase...and I can have runny sugar free pudding, watered down low fat cream soups...although I haven't really been eating those because they fill me up and don't have much Protein...I can also have yogurt which is really delicious. I get the low fat yogurt and mix in my nectar vanilla torte Protein powder...I eat about a half cup throughout the day...it is really yummy. I'm pretty sure you can have all that stuff too!

freethinker 6 Posted February 8, 2013 I am on full liquids till Monday (will be 2-weeks worth). My savior has been the strained cream Soups. I add the powered milk to the milk I add to the Soup to increase the Protein. I can only get about a 1/2 cup in but it satisfies the savory need since all my Protein Shakes taste so sweet!

MsBriteEyez 32 Posted February 8, 2013 I was sleeve 1/28 also and my doc wont let me go to puree/soft foods until next Monday which means waiting 2 full weeks. I am mentally remaining strong because I have to remember in my case poor eating habit when I got in my 30's and being an emotional eater is why I had to have surgery so Im fighting to stay strong and I keep busy. So you are not alone on waiting 2-3 weeks before moving off liquids. Good luck and dont give up. Sent from my iPhone using VST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

loveabledeeuk 20 Posted February 8, 2013 I'm in the UK, on day 15 of the liquid diet and was advised to do four weeks. I'm so bored of the diet but my surgeon advised me I can have Soup as long as I Water it down, it needed to flow from a cup like water. This has helped as I've been able to try different Soups but some days I barely eat as everything makes me nauseas. I'm still experiencinf pain down my right side from the internal stitches but on the plus side I've lost 24 pounds since the pre op diet :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
