Amazing !!

That's awesome!!! Way to go :-)

Thanks feelin great today!!

Follow what your surgeon says to make things smooth. I couldnt drink the protein water makes me sick I just sipped water till I could do shakes. I had trouble I do mean a lot of trouble with my liquids. Just didn't feel right. I had my surgery may 23 and today was my first day almost feelin bak to 100% hang in there hun gets easier :-)

Sorry! Keep ur head up. My surgery wasn't a breeze I had a lot of pain. Feel better hun!

K bare with me because it might take experimenting with pudding flavors and Protein powder flavors and amounts of each on your end to make this work! In a blender I mix one scoop of Protein Powder. One cup of skim milk. One-two cups of crushed ice (blends better) blend all together. Then I add some pudding (your flavor of choice sugar free fat free) to help with the crappy Protein shake flavor that most don't like. Blend up nice and u have a wonderful shake. It even helps if u freeze it for a while before consuming. The smaller the shake easier to consume to get your protein. Sometimes add less liquids to your powder to help make it smaller an more "do able".

Would be Kind of deadly if I were to drink all I want now... Lol

WOW. I am sorry to hear that. I was praying I won't end up back in the hospital that Is no fun! I sincerely hope you get back to 100% soon.

It does it's the best motivation a person could get aside from all the support from my family friends an this website has been a blessing to find so much help an support!

Thank you all! I appreciate the uplifting comments.

Since I started my pre op diet on MAY 16 I am officially down 25 pounds total. Ahhhhhhh. Excitement. Pre op I lost 12 lbs on my strict clear liquid diet. I had surgery on May 23 and was up 2 lbs from the gas and fluids etc. I came home from the hospital on May 24 and since then I lost 15 lbs!! Loving my sleeve.

Lol

Definitely not. I'm still in too much pain to sit up in a chair for to long because of the location of my main incision. I have been waking up with an upset stomach everyday and by the time I get moving an take a shower I'm ready for some Tylenol from being so sore and laying down to rest. I'm giving it another week and I'm going to focus on healing that incision because I'm so ready to go back to work this being laid up crap isn't fun.
