Lol...thanks for sharing! I can't wait to tolerate grilled shrimp in any way other than puréed! Lol

I was on liquids in hospital. Full liquids when I came home for 8 days. Then, went to soft per my doctor at visit. On soft now.

OK you have learned that our Programs are very, very different. I suggest that you (we) follow our program precisely. The big challenge is our fat brain and now is not the time to be creative... That comes later. Me? I was on puréed as soon as I left the hospital. Go figure.

I was on Clear Liquids for the first 24 hours. Then my doctor's program calls for four weeks of full liquids, four weeks of purees, and four months of soft foods. But the dietician bumped me up to purees and soft foods a week early each time because I was doing very well, no issues or complications. I'm still on soft foods for the next two months.

I want to do the liquids. I'm cool with them for now...however my dramatic mind makes me think I'm gonna reject anything nit on the plan and become violently ill. Lol. But with all of these differences I see a tiny bit of room for error. But I'm sticking to their rules....and being a good little kitty.

Lol...thanks...I'm sticking to their plan. Just wishing they email me the updated literature. I like to schedule things and I'd love to mark my calendar for the exact date soft can begin :)

      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.
