OMG I'm so tired of liquids...



Recommended Posts

I am 3 1/2 weeks post op and the purée is ok but still be careful of what you eat. I was also looking forward to mashed potatoes and my new stomach was not loving them! I even thinned them out with chicken broth and they made me so sick! I stick to eggs, yogurt, chicken Soup, and a lentil soup, I will occasionally have some very moist fish. I was told I can have eggs and fish solid as long as they were kept moist. Good Luck ladies and guys. It is so worth it! I'm down 25lbs/total of 32lbs and counting!

THANKS!!! YOU'RE RIGHT I'LL NEVER KNOW WHAT I CAN TOLERATE OR EVEN LIKE WITH THIS NEW STOMACH. THINNING OUT SEEMS LIKE A GREAT IDEA

This totally made my day. I haven't laughed this hard in awhile. It's comforting to know I'm not the only one sick of post-op liquid diet. I got sleeved on 7/28 and so far have lost 20#. I have a lot of energy but I need more liquid diet ideas. Im so over it.....I keep thinking maybe my Dr will let me start purees sooner than later. Thanks all for sharing.

OMG! This post just saved my life! I am 1 week out of surgery (8/8) and have had a pretty good recovery, but is am craving foods like crazy! I know so much of this is my head taking, but man, I didn't expect this part to be so hard. It's harder than the pre-op was for me. So glad to hear it will pass, but thank you so much for bringing this up!!

Also, as hungry as I am, I am having a hard time getting more than 3 ozs of Protein in at a time, so I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to eat solid food if I tried. Does anyone notice their hunger lessen the Protein they get in?

Also, SAVORY Soup RECOMMENDATIONS!! Everything Is sweet!!! I want something savory!! Help!!

Hi guys, I had my surgery on Tuesday, so today is day four after surgery, my doc has said to start puréed diet already but I'm actually feeling quite satisfied with the liquid / Protein shake diet so I'm going to stick with it for at least a full week then introduce a puréed Soup once a day for a couple of weeks and see how I go. I've lost 9lb already !

I went to a restaurant with my partner yesterday and sat and watched him eat a full meal, have a dessert and a big frothy sweet coffee. I had a glass of Water, cup of tea with skim milk and sweetener and not for one moment felt like eating. I also went through a Macdonalds drive through today and picked up a large Big Mac meal with coke for a friend and found the smell in the car horrible, again, I didn't have any desire to eat !

I hope this lasts !!!!!!!

        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
