laney 172 Posted September 13, 2016 Hi there, I am also from Suffolk County and had my surgery at Stony Brook on 8/18/16. I was on a liquid diet one week before and 3 weeks after the surgery. I just stared soft foods. The liquid diet is rough but you have to remember the long term goal to get the weight off and be a healthier you. I could not actually believe how fast the month went. Before you know it all of this will be behind you and you will also be on soft foods. Are you also allowed puréed Soups that helped fill me up ? I am down 30 pounds as of yesterday and feeling good. Please feel free to ask me questions if you like. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
