I am a week post-op and Im down 15 pounds and feeling pretty good. I had a little emotional melt down on Saturday night because I just felt frustrated and nervous. It was weird to be at a diner and having to ask for a to go cup for my Soup broth. Even tho I feel full, I want food so bad it hurts. I want to bite into something. Im so tired of ice pops, shakes, Water, soup... that's been my life for 2 weeks now and to think I need to do it 2 more kills me. I know I can do it but im just a little miserable. Its very hard. But the weight loss helps me to remember what I did this for.

Well I'm 6 day post-op and doing Great. I'm getting 60 grams of Protein in a day on top of my Water, chicken broth and Jello. I am so ready for the next phase of my new life :-) good luck to the rest of September sleevers

I had surgery on the 16th too. Doing really well. The pains not too bad and walking does help. I haven't had anything to eat but ice chips and can't until after my leak test tomorrow but I am hoping I tolerate food/broth ok. Hope everyone is doing well and healing.

I was sleeved on Sept 16. The surgery was a success. My tough time was coming off the anesthesia. All in all I am feeling great. I am up walking. I am drinking my chicken broth And eating Jello. God is sooo good.

Montereygrl, I woke up and did the same thing this morning and got all of my shopping done yesterday for two weeks. My surgery is in less than 12 hours and I'm super excited. Best of luck to you.

I started my liquid pre-op diet on Monday, and the first two days were BRUTAL. I tried a few Protein Shakes, but didn't like any of them. Really struggled to get them down and was starving! Then I saw a recipe on here for a "creamsicle" shake, tried it, and have actually enjoyed it (that's right - ENJOYED it!) for the past three days. Just mix a 1/2 packet of orange-flavor crystal light with 8 oz Water, then add a scoop of vanilla Protein Powder. Shake or blend well to get rid of all the lumps, and seriously - pretty darn good. I am planning to try this with some other crystal light flavors to see if I like them too.
