Nicky, just stick with it. I know it's a bind, but it really is about you healing properly.

Don't rush things as it can be detremental later on.

Just keep thinking happy thoughts about the future and try and find something you like xx

yeah i'll second what Mix has said on this, the longer you can hold of the better and the better you will heal up inside, which in turn will make your transition to solids more smoother, stick with it, it will all soon be over and you'll be eating better foods soon.

Stage 1 Food

Nicky I had a RNY Gastric Bypass and had quite a varied diet even on the liquid stage. I borrowed a blender (not a hand one) and blitzed lots of different things eg, weight watchers shepherds pie with oxo gravy added to it, I even had Turkey Curry over Christmas. Cauliflower cheese goes to a very thin liquid if you blend it enough. I don't know if the stages are different with the sleeve and the bypass, but I was getting very bored with my "slimfast" etc as I don't really like milk and one of the other people at my support group said this is what they had done

Hi Nicky, I agree with Mixman you really have to stick with it only 1 more week to go. Are you only on the liquids for 2 weeks? I had to be on it for 4. It's your head that wanted that bacon sandwich I guarantee you wouldn't be able to eat it. Where did you have your surgery done? Stay stronge you will be glad you did.

i had my surgery done at homerton i didnt want the bacon sarnie im just feed up with the same flavours but i sent my daughter to the shop and she has picked me up some different flavour yougarts ony another week and can start blending some normal foods mash and gravy with carrots and parsnips is going to be firstl

on my liquids stage i just hand blended real food and added stock and poured it through a little plastic tea strainer to it to make it a fluid was told it had to be the consistency that could be sucked through a straw....

 

[tynckas]

The tea strainer is a great idea.... we found all sorts to put through it LOL.....

It might seem a drag at the time but it is well worth taking your time & not rushing things stage to stage... I know the feeling of wanting different flavours though.. LOL...

I had my bypass @ the Hommerton 5/12/09 so I've just started stage 3 now.... time soon passes hun... good luck with it... xx
