Hi everyone....I am one week and a day since I was

Sleeved. I have been following full liquids.... Shakes....tomato soup.... Greek yogurt.... I could not take the Greek yogurt anymore with sugar free strawberry preserves so I added a couple of teaspoons of unsweetened applesauce...........I don't go to the next phase until September 10 ....was that okay?

Hi Alyce,

I had my surgery last Wednesday and I don't go into the next phase until September 10th as well. I don't believe you cheated at all, sometimes I feel as if I'm doing the wrong things because all of this is so new to me, I wonder if the same thing might be happening to you as well? Were you able to tolerate the applesauce? I think that would be the biggest concern.

Have a great WL journey!

Alyce, Our doctor's plans vary a bit, but here is where I was at post-op (I am at 8 1./2 months now). I came home on on Day 3, permitted to drink full liquids. At week two, I went on to purees, which include applesauce, but sugar free. Sugar is still an issue for me now. I just can't afford to give my calorie balance (800 per day) over to sugar or starrch). At week three I started soft foods, and at week four I graduated cautiously to cooked whole foods. I would not accuse you of cheating, myself, but just advise you to be patient withh your team's plan. Oh, and that week three stall is coming up, just so you know.

I think you're fine. Unsweetened apple sauce was okay for me after the first few days. Just don't let it fill you up and prevent you from getting in your Protein and fluids!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
