Never thought I would be so happy to be off the liquid diet! Loving getting to have some pureed food for a change!

Such a great attitude! Whoo hooo! Wait until you get to soft foods, I remember I went out at midnight to buy a slice of meatloaf from a 24/7 deli. It savored all 4 bites :lol:

I start puree over the weekend. But tried a few things that were on soft menu. Follow up was Tuesday. Dr said if I'm handling it and not having issues then soft is OK instead just chew chew chew

I have to admit. I didn't make it through the full day without incident. Was great until dinner and then I had pureed cauliflower with canned chicken. The chicken was not pureed, but it is very soft. I only had small amount, but something just didn't sit right and back up it came after about 15 min. Maybe I ate too fast. I'm sure I will have considerable learning as I go through this process!

I'm definitely learning that when I eat too fast or too much I have major issues. I really have to pay attention. Interestingly I've found that I start burping when my stomach is done eating. It's nice to have that signal since costly my eyes and brain haven't figured it out yet.

      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.
