Ok, ok how many weeks before soft food? Confused!



Recommended Posts

My doc first said 2 days liquid, 3 weeks full liquid and 3 weeks puréed, then start soft foods. Now she said they changed it to 2 days liquid, 2 weeks full liquid , 2 weeks puréed and then soft. What was your regimen per docs orders?

Well first of all...I pray your doing well and with minimal discomfort. Congratulations on hopping to the post side of this journey. I was sleeved 10/10/13 and my cravings are ridiculous...but the fact remains that if I actually ate what I craved I could only stomach a bite or two lol. But I still want this liquid misery to be over star! Be well!! :)

Im on full liquids for 2 weeks then pureed foods for 2 weeks. Probably best to get in touch with your doctor and explain they gave you 2 different sets of instructions and which they want you to follow

Thanks so much...they told me to follow the 2-2 yesterday but I wanted to hear the many differences since they changed it. I guess it boils down to a definite 2 or 3 week minimum for liquids (hunches) I'm just happy I'm not on 3-3 as that would ruin my vacation :)

I was on soft foods along with purees/mushies and liquids from the first week - scrambled eggs and yogurt along with Jello and broths in the hospital and progressing as tolerated from there.

I thought, just like you, wow sooo many variances. From what I've read so far is we need to be I tuned with on bodies. I've tried some stuff and it's made me gag. Others things I have to watch because they taste so good I have almost over ate, like grilled shrimp. I can eat 6, not 7. I chewed that sucker up, but it didn't go down for an hour. :-).

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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
