Weird- day 8 for me an no issues until yesterday. Yesterday I had my first BM since surgery (yay) but then that was followed with a couple of diarrhea bouts. This morning I had my normal Protein and Vitamins and now I am nauseated if I sit still. Very odd- like I said no issue until now. Should I be concerned?

Experimenting with flavors has helped me. I also use the unsweetened almond milk, and add a tsp of sugar free pudding for flavor change. Here is one that I love- def like a milkshake: 1 scoop chocolate Protein ( I am using GNC Amp) 1 tsp sugar free cheesecake pudding mix 1/2 tsp creamy Peanut Butter (PB2 if you can find it) 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk Ice and blend I call is Reese's Cheesecake Amp. Lol

I have "head hunger" too, but it does pass pretty quickly. I just sip more Water, or if desperate I sip a couple teaspoons strained Soup. I am exactly 1 wk post op an FINALLY had my first BM. Thank goodness- that was a welcome blessing! Lol!

Thank you- I was scared that was too much.

I was sleeved on 12/27, last Thursday. I was able to drink about 8oz if protein shake in less than an hour. Is that ok?

Sleeved 12/27, down 12 lbs!

Definitely a difference! You look great! Keep up the good work and congratulations!

Doing great here! Just went on second walk outside today

I will be SOOO happy!

I can def relate! I love my sodastream pop maker and am so tempted...but I know the little gasy bubbles I get now when sipping would only get worse.

Wanted to follow up and see how your doing post op. ???? hope all went well

Yes watering my Protein down too. I have done extremely well with sugar free popsicles too. Now my biggest goal for the day- lay on my side! Lol Seriously I am a side sleeper, can't wait to get comfortable. Congrats to all, love to hear any extra advice!

Was sleeved this past thurs, 27 Dec. so far so good, just sipping along. I find I am able to drink pretty well, happy for that. Trying to get some protein in today. Went on a short walk and took a shower- not extremely tired.

Jenny- good luck to you!

And... Why am I gasy today? Is that going to be bad for tmrw? Caffeine headaches? Ughhh

And I am nervous, super excited, but nervous. Can't seem to focus on things- like what do I pack? What if something happens? Will this actually work? And I am hungry (liquids only today)

I am also scheduled for Dec 27th. I am starting to get nervous a little. I feel like everything I have learned and prepared for is slipping out of my head and being blinded by nerves and excitement. All of a sudden I am like, oh my gosh - what do I do? LOL. Merry Christmas everyone!!! Here is the a wonderful New Year!

Kimrig- I would love some if your recipes or websites.

Getting close, and very excited!!! Interested in what y'all are doing to prepare for the big day and the return home
