Dose anyone know what will happen if you jump stages in your diet plan to fast. I'm only 6 days out of surgery and feel like I'm getting so bored with the full liquids. I just started yesterday and feel like I'm eating the same things every time I'm hungry. Don't know how I'm going to last another 5 days. There's only so much yogurts, Tomato Soup, ice pops and jello/pudding I can eat.

I wouldn't recommend progressing faster than your surgeon advised you to. If you had the sleeve, you've just had your stomach cut up the side of the organ, and it needs serious TLC to heal. Boredom is a small price to pay to have a safe recovery. You can make it, I promise!

What would happen?? Worse case scenario: death.

Boredom is one thing; having your stomach's staple-incision line bust open, break down, become infected, and you totally jack up what you just went through is another.

Patience. This too shall pass. Focus on the bigger goal: a thinner, healthier you...hopefully without (self-induced), or any, post-op complications.

Seriously, you could get a leak or a food particle caught in your staple line or any number of problems. I know it sucks but, really, it's only five more days. If you're wanting to give up this soon out you're gonna have nothing but issues moving forward.

That's what I figure!!! Thanks everyone just need reassurance so now I know that it's a big no no.

Seela I didn't say I was giving up I'll do just fine thanks. I was just asking

I'm so glad. I wasn't trying to imply that you were, I remember well how hard that post op period is. Just don't chance it. A month from now it will be a non issue. Good luck!
