I am 5 months post op and ALL liquids taste bad to me I have been getting bad headaches and I think maybe it's dehydration. I've tried everything

It's hard to share, because everyone's surgeon's/nutritionists have different plans Just follow whatever your doc has told you. It's hard at first, but it does get better; hang in there.

You look great! Keep on having a wonderful time!!

Great sculpture!

Great job! You look wonderful!!

WooHoo! You look great! Keep up the great work!!!

Special K Protein, with 1/2 C of 1% milk.

You look great! Keep up the good work!!!

I'm doing great! I have my 6 week appointment this Thursday, and then I'll be able to eat some meat!! Weight loss is slow right now, more stalls than anything else But I just have to keep plugging away at it. Including the 2 weeks pre-op diet, I am down 27 pounds.

Wow, that is wonderful!!! I have my 6 week appt on the 10th. Including 2 week pre-op diet, I'm down 26 pounds.

I found a great tasting pre-mixed Protein shake at WalMart, Core Power Light banana Strawberry; it's delicious, and 20g of protein!!!

Congrats! You look great!!

I haven't figured mine out yet, but I sure need to soon! A few times lately I've had that "last bite" that turned into the one that was too much

Oh wow your four weeks out? Are you on the mushy food phase? I have been on the liquid diet for two weeks before surgery and I have been so emotionally hungry! Thanks for the kind words Yes, I'm on limited soft foods: cottage cheese, refried Beans, mushed veggies, oatmeal/cream of wheat, greek yogurt. I get to go to the next phase in 10 days. I was on a 2 week pre-packaged food diet pre-op. Don't worry, your hunger will disappear after surgery; at least, MINE did. Now I eat because I HAVE to...or because I WANT to.

So beautiful!
