at 2 weeks:

-cream of wheat made with milk- kinda of thin. There is Protein in it!

-pushed up cottage cheese

- soft cheese like babybel- let is sit at room temp for about 10 mins. first they melt in your mouth.

-greek yogurt.

-if you can tolerate them refried Beans. with a little sour cream.

Thats what I lived off of from 2 weeks to 1 month

I personally ate:

Cream of Rice - made very thin and easy to eat.

Cream of Zuchini Soup

Cream of Brocolli Soup

chicken broth

sugar free pudding

Almond Milk

Low fat or Fat Free Yogurt (Latosse Free)

Do you have a diet guide from your doc? If so follow what it says.

Is it hunger? Or is it acid/reflux? Maybe head hunger.

I am one week post- op and I feel like I'm hungry too! It was so easy being at the hospital and knowing there wasn't food to look at, but since I have come home and have had to cook for my family, I feel like I could turn into a psyco path! I sometimes have to chew gum to satisfy my urge to chew. I cannot wait to have real food again.

It will get better but it can get so tough I actually cried. Egg drop Soup was my "treat" because it didn't seem like diet food. Creamy Soups were great for me as well. Hang in there and stay diligent. It WILL get better.

I found a new love for split pea Soup at that stage! I really needed to thin down refried Beans if I ate them. Out of the can they were way too thick. Greek yogurt is good just watch for sugar. Stick to sugar free plain if you can.

I am in the same boat! I'm two weeks out and at first cooking wasn't bad bc I knew I couldn't have it and I didn't even want it but now I'm like what the hellllll am I putting myself through!! It's like torture!! Seriously. I made BBQ chicken last night for my hub and it smelled so amazing and I was so ready to be like "screw it one bite won't kill me" (I didn't). It was brutal. I have been living off tuna green Beans yogurt and was given a fab recipe for buffalo chicken salad type thing from someone on here. It was amazzzzzeeee!! Probably too good. Pretty sure I over did it yesterday. lol but we can all do this!!!! Just keep drinking Water. It fills me (usually) for a while.

      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
