    8 days post op cheater :/

    9 oz shake with double the serving of protein. I forgot to add that. And the shakes are boring me.. im going to buy unflavored protein for my smoothies
  2. Well Im not really cheating.. I drink my Protein shakes like I should a week out. I make my 9 oz Protein shake and drink 3oz for Breakfast lunch and dinner.. and my Water . Still having trouble with plain water bc it hurts going down but at night I wake out of my sleep from hunger pains.. ive been sipping water to get me through the night but now its annoying.. So! I was told not to have fruits or veggies until a month out and I tested out a bite of mango and it did not bother me. So I blended a whole mango, filled with water a few ice cubes and a shot of light apple juice and its heaven!.. im sipping on some now before I go to bed and freeze for tomorrow night. Its just a little some thing to let me sleep through the night. If I can have sugar free juice why cant I make my own natural juice? Can anyone else stomach anything else besides shakes and water? I feel like this surgery isn't making me sick like alot of posts I see.. am I lucky? Lol
  3. I think Im doing better than I thought I would. Ive been walking around as much as possible since the day of surgery (aug 6). I cant seem to get all the water in it literally seems impossible. Everytime I sip I hear it through my body and it even hurts a little going down. My stomach growls and burns but I really dont have an appetite so I ate a light yogurt. Im not going to lie, my family from out of town came over and cooked and I snuck a teaspoon of potato salad mashed it up as much as I could and chewed it as well.. I didnt get sick but felt full and satisfied. I need some options on what to consume besides protein shakes to get my protein in and how can I get all these damn fluids in.. uggh!
  4. Check into that im pretty sure u can have pudding.. all doctors are different. Your on a 2week preop and im on a 2day preop that kind of scares.me too but ive came across others who were doing the same
  5. Thank u thank u thank u! No hernia this way though.. or I hope they dont find one. Im excited myself yet scared but im ready for the change. Congratulations in tour weight loss, thats greatx I cant wait to say the same
  6. Thank u soooo much! This really helped me out alot. I think I may just try thr broth and milk sounds like it wouldnt be bad.. also, u didnt do any jellos or pudding? And what about cream soup?
  7. Im having surgery Wednesday and tomorrow im going grocery shopping. What are some key items I should buy for the first and second week post op?

    9 more days until surgery

    Thank u! Best wishes to u too
  9. Surgery is scheduled for August 6th. I still cant believe it.. Im not going to lie, Im having some mixed emotions but I keep checking out this forum, the gastric sleeve support group on facebook and instagram and continue to read about everyones success stories so I can feel more encouraged. I know this is what I want, I just hope I dont fail at this or god forbid any complications ! Trying to stay strong!
  10. Where do you live? Ive been working with surgical intensivists in Hawthorne NY. As long as you dont gain massive amounts of weight prior to surgery and do your clearances they approve you. They seemed like a pretty easy process to me. Ive started my journey in February and Im getting sleeved next month by Dr. Anthony Maffei. Go to nygetfit.com OH and they only require 2 day liquid diet post op!
  11. Im due for surgery august 6th. I want to stock up on basic things I need to help me get through this preop postop liquid diet stafr. Can you guys throw a few ideas at me.. I need variety!!!! Also, is it ok for me to have canned liquid soup like tomato soup or like cream of chicken soup?
  12. Hey recent sleevers lol! My surgery is next month and I would like u guys to help me out with a list of things I should stock up on to eat when I come home after surgery so I wont have to worry later. I hear alot about jellos, broth, water, pudding, but what else? I need variety and idk about broth. I hate broth

    lied about my surgery :/

    Whew! Thank u guys I feel much better. Ill get my dr note and specifically tell my dr I want my procedure confidential and if he says anything about it.. ill let it be known thats its confidential. Im sure what all u guys are saying is right but ill still call HR and tell them what my boss said
