Did anyone skip mushy stage?

I was on liquid only (thin liquid) for nearly 2 weeks before I went onto pureed food. So yes, from what you've said, you'll be ready for pureed/mushy food by the time you see your specialist/surgeon.

I had trouble just with liquids at the beginning and I was strogly advised NOT to try mushed food any earlier. However I did start pureed food 2 days before i was supposed to because I was bored to tears with liquid only.

Good luck and take care.

I have to eat slowly. I found that if I eat solid food too fast I get a "I need to burp feeling" not pain so much but pretty uncomfortable.

I was banded on the 23rd and I do the same thing. I see my doctor on the 27th and he will decide If I need a fill or not. He said if I was still losing then there was no need for one yet.

Are you hungier/less full now compared to two weeks or so ago?

I'm hungrier than I was 2 weeks ago definitely. I'm hoping for a fill because right now it's all willpower no band help LOL

Me too. Though I don't think I could eat what I used to, amount wise because I do get fuller quicker. That may be all in my head but that's ok, I'll take it.
