Ok, call me bad, but I hate the purée stage, and I did not do it! I found myself eating soft foods and making it mushy! I haven't had any problems so far! I get my Protein in from eggs, tuna, chicken in the can type of stuff! I have been eating fresh fruit! I bought the unflavored Protein Powder and sprinkle it on my food and the weight is still coming off! I just feel tired easily and it makes it hard to exercise! I was sleeved on May 7, sw was 271, cw is 247! That's how I know it's different strokes for different folks!

And I thought I was weird I'm glad to see my fellow May 7 sleevers are having the same things I do. I like my soft foods my tuna, my scrambled eggs with mushrooms according to my doc it's fine. What I'm having trouble with is Acid reflux and getting my Water in.

I hear ya! My doc actually has more of a soft foods phase more than puree right after the 1 - 2 days liquid phase. I'm losing a lot of weight so I'm good with my doc's advice. I knew eating puree would be very hard for me. I'm a texture gal.

So ur doctor had u on a 1-2 day liquid diet then went straight to soft foods?

My dr had my first 2 days a clear liquid diet an then days 3-14 a full liquid diet. Then puréed for 2 weeks then soft foods.

Yup! We couldn't leave the hospital until we ate a few bites of pureed tuna or cream of chicken Soup. I wanted to go home, and I'll admit it was hard to get that down, but there was no specific amount required - just enough for the nurse to document that a few bites were taken. Mind you, we do the stomach test the morning after surgery. Then we have to get a few sips of liquid. Then we go to puree/soft foods. Then we go home! He said there's no proven reason to stay on liquids and kind of chuckles about it.

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

        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.

      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
