I don't feel like we are judging you, we just aren't here to enable you if you decide to not to follow your surgeon's plan. You will probably be fine, yes. But really, you shouldn't be surprised that a lot of go to responses on here are going to be "follow your surgeon's plan".

And Dr orders are not the same my diet hasn’t changed and the only thing I’m adding is scrambled eggs a day early. I don’t think people understand that all of ours plans are not the same

If having a scrambled egg is out of the norm for my stage so be it. I’m confused as to why people think my plan is the same as theirs. I’ve been on a liquid diet for 3 weeks and I’m sure our orders are not the same.

My body can’t take another pudding, purée, fake Protein Premier shake, popsicles, Jello anymore man. Starting tomorrow I’m starting my soft foods 2 days early. Crap is not even healthy and I feel like I’m just welting away. I need eggs, fish, cheese, fruit, veggies with some type of substance. I feel so weak and I just threw up for the first time since surgery on mar 27th. I will let me doctor know but I have to move on to something different tomorrow.
I completely understand!!! I just started week 4 today and I am finally now on soft/pureed foods. For lunch I tried 1/4 cup cottage cheese with 2oz of sliced Turkey and just a few small pieces of pickles. I also added pepper for flavor. I could only eat like 4 small bites, but it was so nice to eat actual food!!!

No, doctor's plans vary greatly. My doctor had me on a liquid diet for 2 weeks prior to surgery and *6* WEEKS after surgery. So I get it. But I've reviewed the posts and frankly I don't see anyone telling you to follow THEIR plan, they are advising you to follow YOUR SURGEON'S plan.

You do what you want. But just because you aren't getting the responses you want - which seems to be them supporting your choice not to follow your surgeon's plan - does not mean you are being judged. Youre going to find a lot more 'tough love' in these forums than you will enabling.

What do you mean it’s not tough love and it’s not backed up facts it’s opinionated. Responses are all over the place. So if I step out the box to have a scrambled egg it’s ok and I can take whatever comes my way. No big deal and I appreciate all the feedback

Trusting the surgeon is not the issue dear. My body is sick of the crap I’ve been eating and taken in the past 3 weeks and 2 days early is not an issue. I haven’t had eggs so I’m going to try eggs

Your surgery was two days after mine you are going to make two weeks. I feel the same way I am surviving on Water and feeling really weak. I am can't take anything else that's liquid. And to pass water it has to be super cold, otherwise, I can't drink it either.

On my plan, after a two week liquid diet, we are to self advance to the week 3 "purée" then week 4 "soft stage" when we feel our body can handle it. It seems like you should be close enough to listen to your body. I would just make sure to soft scramble it and take it slow. Good luck!

      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.
