Anyone Else Just Start Mushie Stage?

[Miki 0]

Was banded 3/25 - started mushies today - did not slip up on liquid stage at all - for mushie stage - my doctor has me eating 1 oz of mushies - 3x a day - with liquids and Carnation Instant Breakfast shakes in between - was RAVENOUSLY hungry today:eek: Also returned to work today - wondering if that has something to do with it too!

Definitely ate more than 1 oz of mushies for dinner - just so hungry:frown: Anyone else going through the same right now? Happy to have found these boards!!!

Stomach is also KILLING me today - basically have a sedentary job but was moving around a lot...

Having a hard time with mushies. Went back to liquids. I find I am less hungry with the liquids and feel more in control. My surgery date was 3/24. Started mushies last Friday.

Good luck to you!

I will start my mushies on Saturday. I am really tired of the liquids. My doctor allows us to have soft foods such as meatloaf, meat balls, soft green veggies on the next phase/mushies...Is that what you all are allowed. I certainly don't want to over do it. Will start exercising next week. Gang hand in there. We are doing this together!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for all the feedback, everyone!!! Hugs to everyone - we can do this!! From reading other responses and looking at other threads, seems like my doctor's office is pretty conservative in terms of what we can eat for mushies...

I was much less hungry on liquids also - but I guess that the natural progression of my appetite coming back is making the mushies not do much for me...

Found out this morning - my first fill is April 30th!:redface:
