I picked broth from my favorite Chinese restaurant from their Won Ton Soup and it was a great change up for me. Some people on here also have broth from Pho which is another Asian Soup, but we don't have any places around here with it.

It gets better. I am 17-days post op and it gets better.

Surgery 9-30-13

Liquids are making me sick. I need another option!

me too I had surgery the same day as u! congrats! I haven't been drinking broth because it's nasty and too salty, my blood pressure was high after surgery so all I've been drinking is Water crystal light and Jello even crystal,light is getting too sweet so now just water. Tomorrow I can have Protein Shake and pureed foods I can't wait!

Congrats to you. This liquid phase is bothersome. I am going to tell my doctor there is no way on the planet I will be able to purée meats when the time comes next week. I'm a texture person and meat should not be put in a blender. I can't eat cooked fruit, oatmeal anything close to oatmeal a form or slimy texture. I have a lot of foods I can't and won't eat. You would think I would be naturally thin.

Just remember that even if the food sounds terrible, it is a very short period of time and will be over before you know it. PLEASE don't cheat. I've seen people hurt themselves by moving on too quickly.

I had surgery in 09/16th, so 3-weeks and 2-days ago and I had a lap-band removal and revision to RNY. My doctor has me progressing with food such as crumbled hamburger meat with cheese.

Hopefully, you can have that soon. I am drinking plenty of fluids everyday and taking the Vitamins as directed. It gets better.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
