Hi VSG group,
I recently had surgery last week and looking for support, information and to meet people that are transitioning their lives as I am. I am currently on a clear liquid diet and about to go crazy. I'm starting to feel a lil hungry but I'm not really wanting what I can eat at the moment. I'm drinking G2 and Smar****er, eating sugarfree jello, saltine crackers, fat free pringles and greek no fat plain yogurt (which I put my protein in). I guess after 8 days of eating the same thing I'm getting burnt out. I tried chicken broth on Friday and didn't like the taste of it. I'm going to try again today.
If you have any suggestions, ideas I'm open to listening to them.
Look forward to many discussions.
Thanks,
Dawn

Hi Dawn, congrats on your surgery and welcome to the forum.
I'll bet you didn't realize it, but you are actually on the VSG Maintenance forum. That said, you are welcome to stay here if you want. Everyone is welcome here. However, you might also like to visit the main VSG board where you will find people who are early out from surgery, with Lot's of discussions and idea's on what to eat, and other important post surgery info and discussions. Here is a link:

Like I said though. You are more than welcome to hang out here as well. You don't have to be in Maint to be on this board.
Welcome to the losers bench! This is such a fantastic journey with the end result being better health and a new you! By the way, our surgeries are on the same date, exactly one year apart! I was a little nervous that "13" was an unlucky day, but now I consider it my lucky number!!
P.S. It might be a good idea to copy and paste your post onto the main VSG board.

Did your dr give you a food plan? the reason i ask is because for the first two weeks after surgery i was on a liquid only diet to give the stomach time to heal..
Im just a little surprised at only 8 days out your allowed to eat crackers and pringles...

Hi all,
I just realized that's this is a maintenance group sorry. I post on the other one as well...thanks.
Yeah my dr gave me a food plan but it includes crackers and pringles (don't ask me it's on my list). I was on a clear liquid diet but on my 10th day I move to smooshie foods (trying grits now for the 1st time). I ate crackers in the hospital the next day so I guess it's considered a clear food.
