The pre op diet was 7 days for me.. The first 5 days were to eat nothing but protein and veggies and then the last 2 days were straight liquid and then drink the stuff to clean you out. And I had my surgery and for 3 days After surgery I was still on liquids and the 4th day out I got to have mashed potatoes! And I have a diet to follow for eight weeks to get my tummy back to regular food! After surgery make sure you walk! Recovery was a breeze for me I went back to work quick. I had my surgery on a Monday and went back to work that Saturday. I just couldn't lift anything over 10lbs. I went in weighing 275 and 7 weeks out I'm down 35 pounds. It gets easier eating. But still only can have like 5 bites depending on what I'm eating! Listen to your body for sure, if you ignore it you'll be sick trust me haha.

I've had the same problem craving soda. But I have found that powerade zero is amazing, kinda switches things up a little from water.

No drain.

Looking for someone to go through this journey with who understands exactly what I'm going through! Surgery date was august 26th I'm now 7 weeks out and 35lbs down! Goal weight is 175.

Would love to chat with some people who have gone through the sugery! Surgery date was august 26 and I'm now 7 weeks out and down 35 pounds! Goal weight is 175!

Hi all! I had my gastric sleeve done on August 26th to be exact! I'm having a really hard time getting protein down. I take my vitamins and stuff like I'm suppose to but, getting that protein down is not working for me. Lord knows I do not want to lose my hair but if some of you guys could give me some tips that would be awesome.
