I'm on the full liquid diet now; I have been eating Soups, but I just realized my list said no Beans.. & I've been eating taco Soup. I'm terrified with every drink& every bite I'm going to mess up my sleeve / stretch it out..

Any advice on that ? I have my nutrition visit next Tuesday but I'm just curious as to what anyone thinks.. how much should I be eating ? Will me eating Beans effect anything that much ? post-308447-14842799622102_thumb.jpg

If you stopped eating Beans and you feel nothing out of the ordinary, good, you've probably done no damage. The language of your message, however, indicates that you're still eating them. Your gut is in your hands.

Not just bites of beans.. I just mean in general , when I eat anything or drink anything. I'm not eating Beans anymore since I just seen I'm supposed to avoid them rn.. strange thing is it doesn't hurt my stomach or bother me so that's what worries me.

Did you blend & strain the Soup?

I didn't blend, no. Wouldnt that just make it chunkier?

On full liquids, you should only be having strained cream Soups and broths. Some docs allow sugar free pudding, fudge pops and cottage cheese. Mine did. I still mainly drank shakes.

I drink about 2/3 Protein shakes a day; the boost kind; & then one serving a Soup.

2/3 as in 2 or 3. Not 2/3rds.

You seem to be missing the point that you are on liquids- the stuff in the soup: Beans, onions, etc. are solids. broth, creams, and other liquids are all that is allowed on full liquids. Either strain the Soup (remove all solids) or purée it so that the solids liquify.

@@brennafaith -- "I didn't blend, no. Wouldnt that just make it chunkier?"

Brenna, I think it would be in your best interest to speak with the RD or NP or similar at your surgery practice. Pronto. You're working in the dark with such confusions that to continue on your own or wade through responses here in BP probably won't help that much. I say this only because I know first-hand and from speaking with people in the seven years since my surgery that, in the early days, so much info and so many instructions are thrown at us that confusion (even about things a person has always known) is common. That you're thrown at the mention of blender is a clue. Please make the call and let the RD know exactly what you've been doing and what you've done and stopped doing. You'll get clarity and peace of mind. Take a deep breath, too. Please. You'll be fine. That's a promise.

      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.
