What do you mean by full liquids?

I am on Clear Liquids still! broth, Water, sugar free Jello, sugar free pops, tea.....only things that you can see through! It will be a week tomorrow....I assume I will go to full liquids (milk, Protein shakes, etc) when I see doctor, but I REALLY wanna start tomorrow!

I started on full liquids one week post surgery. But I saw my Dr prior to that. Call them and ask if you can start on the Protein shakes again.

pre-surgery weight 325; surgery date 2/28/2013; surgery weight 307; 8 weeks past-op weight 281.4; 12 weeks post-op 274; 4 month post-op 266.2

I was on clears for 2 weeks postop & now I'm in the second week of fulls. I will be at 4 weeks this coming Wednesday & can officially move to purees. However, I'm allowed sugar free pudding on fulls, which is pretty thick, so I've been making some thinner purees already & haven't had any problems.

The idea of anything purée disgusts me

Me too. I eat a lot of the full liquid stuff with some purée like eggs and cottage cheese and other soft cheeses. Can't do purée meats yet lol

Once again it's proven that diff doctors have diff protocol for diet advancement. I was on Clear Liquids day of surgery. Day after surgery, they brought me "Boost" for Breakfast at the hospital & I'm on full liquids for 2 weeks. Then puree'd one week, then soft 1 week, then the sky is the limit with food after that! Well...you know what I mean (haha!)...

      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.
