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.

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

I started milky Protein Shakes and yogurt by day 6. Just take it slow and stop if you are feeling ill. I personally had a heck of a time with the clear stage. Once I started drinking regular Protein shakes, the food dreaming waned a bit. Good luck!!

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!)...
