I just cant see my stomach being healed enough or being able to tolerate eggs in the 1st week I just need guidelines to what I have to an need to do' date=' but she is confusing me.[/quote']

Well since they seem to want to clear you so early for those kinds of foods...

I would say in the first week stay with things like chicken broth, watery cream Soups (chicken, mushroom) just make sure you strain them first

And I would do the shakes you want to build up to 60 grams of Protein a day and build up to at least 64oz of Water a day...

You can also do the pudding yogurt thing since she said you could....

You want to take in about 1/4 cup of these things at a time, and don't drink for about 30 minutes after eating. When you do drink take in about 2oz every ten minutes or so.

Are you in soft/ purée?

Try chili, lightly puréed or meatballs and marinara

lightly puréed, hell I even did meatloaf and gravy puréed and malt-o-meal made with chicken broth :)

Yes, I'm on soft and pureed...I've never pureed anything...I mash it if possible and chew it well to almost nothing then swallow. I started back to work last Monday, caught the flu , got hoarse, now I'm trying to get back on track.I work in a super busy pharmacy..I intake scripts, type and fill scripts, and etc...I haven't been getting my Water in, I'm so busy i forget I have a drink to drink. So I've been making my shakes and forget to drink those too. Ughhh..I am trying to focus on my drinking but its almost impossible..lol...a 24oz shake lasts me the whole 8 hours...its that busy...lol..so I try to nibble on tuna or chickebr breast or fish during the day between moving super fast in the pharmacy. I do t know what to do,I am exhausted at the end of the day, then I try to play catchup with drinking my fluids. Omg...lol

      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.
