How did you get past the liquid stage? Feeling hopeless
wascott replied to cuchas's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@rgodfrey09 Cholula sauce is my favorite. I'm looking forward to using it again once I'm post-op. -
@@BusyLizzy Not yet. My surgery is on Monday.

@@Mp1409 I'm being sleeved at the OCC the day before you. We may pass each other in the hall or at the Marriott.

I weigh myself every morning and log the data into a spreadsheet so I can plot the data in a graph.

Need more variety!
wascott replied to Lanewboricua's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I add various flavor extracts like vanilla, mint, raspberry, coconut, etc. I also like PB2, unsweetened cocoa powder, cinnamon, and decaffeinated instant coffee. Unjury chicken soup flavored protein mix is good when you get sick of sweet protein drinks. -
Chocolate cravings and dreaded PMS
wascott replied to NoMoreWeightNJ's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Try adding unsweetened cocoa powder to your chocolate protein shakes. It's low calories and adds some additional chocolate flavor. If you like peanut butter I recommend PB2. It's powdered peanut butter and much lower in fat than conventional peanut butter. (I mix it into vanilla protein shakes) -

I cheated....I'm ashamed
wascott replied to chines66's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I found that I felt better as time went on. I'm on day 12. Just a couple days left. At least the steak was protein. Get back on your horse and stay away from other people when they're eating. -
@@BusyLizzy Good luck with your pre-op diet.

@@JosieAppleHead They inadvertently left out my shaker bottle but immediately sent it after I contacted them. Great customer service. -

Unjury sells chicken soup flavored protein and also plain protein powder that you can mix into things you do like. You need to get that protein in. -
Unjury - Sample Pack Purchase Review
wascott replied to Maggietcu2's topic in Post-op Diets and Questions
I really like the chicken soup flavored protein. I like many others got sick of all the sweet shakes. The thermometer is to make sure you don't make it too hot. The protein will congeal if it gets too hot. They recommend 140F. Enjoy! -
Tired of my life like this
wascott replied to JessterNC's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Thanks for sharing. I'm having my surgery on Monday. I've learned a lot of good information from the many great folks on this site. Good luck on your journey. -
For me it was my cousin openly sharing her weight loss surgery experiences in Mexico. Without that I wouldn't be having surgery on Monday and I'd still be gaining weight. Learning about this site and the affordability of surgery in Mexico led me to my decision to have this done.

What do you wish you would/wouldn't have taken?

@@RNsleever715 Shustar used a different Dr. Ortiz. There are two in Tijuana. I see them get interchanged a lot on this site. -

@@RNsleever715 My surgery isn't until Monday but everyone that I've talked with had very positive things to say about him, his staff, and the facility. My dealings with the staff has been very good. -

The most recommended items to me were lip balm and GasX strips. -

Some of those Swanson broths sounds good. I've not heard of them before. I'll have to keep my eyes open for them.
