[dat_sweetmami 81]

Is your husband with you? You need some support on your end does he know you are struggling? It might be time to cut your visit short and go home. I was not up to to much socializing the first few weeks. And I did mine at thanksgiving I was not strong enough to be around people eating. And that's ok. Take care of yourself right now.

Thank YOU. yes he's been so good to me. EXTREMELY I SHOULD SAY. Im going to let him know.

You should definitely consult your doctor on his/her plan for your first couple of weeks. I know that some doctors do only Clear Liquids the first two weeks, and then "full liquids" the second two. My doctor, on the other hand, does anything liquid during the first two weeks, as long as it is the consistency to be sipped through a straw (BUT DON'T USE A STRAW - TO MUCH AIR/GAS). Of course, Protein needs to be FIRST PRIORITY. I have been doing lentil Soup put through the blender, and fat-free greek yogurt. I have also been doing drinks that I ordered through American Bariatric - both their clear Fruit Drinks (a little like Crystal Light), and their cappucino mix (delicious - I mix it with warm coffee - 15 grams of protein and 90 calories!).

My instructions were to go from clear liquids to full and that was continue all the clear/see thru liquids I had before and now can add creamy soups-but No lumps or chunks. When I am on Soft diet I can progress to cereals/oatmeal. Hopefully Hopefully, I can go to soft at the end of next week!!. I have to get 40 grams of Protein in daily!

The ones I've seen are still really high in calories and carbs, unfortunately.

I JUST went to stop and shop and thy had HIGH Protein ENSURE ...is full liquids just liquids.. what is for dinner then? liquid shakes?

If you want hot you can do Soup and just liquefy the chunks. Savory.
