Sugary Sweetheart

Get PROFESSIONAL Help! In support group I met a woman who started drinking wine and became an alcoholic. She lost her husband and children in 2 years of this addiction and decided to attend AA Meetings to reestablish a relationship with her children. In the AA Meetings she polled the people and found out 15 in the group had WLS. 1 DIED a slow miserable death. So her warning to us was NEVER drink, it can cost you everything.

To break up the monotony of sweet Protein, put non flavored protein in broth. I need that after getting a headache. Headache never came back. Sent from my SM-G530T1 using the BariatricPal App

Hey I was sleeved on July 13th also! I spoke to my surgeon after feeling dizzy and heart palpitations. Dehydration is a real problem after surgery. He told me to get 40 oz of liquid in me, including meals. Protein scoops with coconut water( 3x a day 12oz) Protein with bone broth (4 oz) Isopure flavored Protein Drink half bottle with added Protein powder (10 oz) popsicles (4oz) and Water for whatever I'm lacking. I hope this helped a bit. Congrats on making the choice for a healthy life!

At my pre op today my surgeon was happy to see I've lost 26 pounds for surgery. All my tests are done. Surgery is next week!!! I'm thrilled! So here comes the question.... Did anyone use norco for pain relief after surgery?

UPDATE: Day 3 of liquid Diet. Feeling so much better now. Trying not to go too long without drinking something. Still within my 1280 cal and not in pain anymore. Pre Op today, I'm thrilled and Dr. Pham is happy that I've lost 26 total pounds! Surgery next Wednesday and Sunday I'm going to tell my family I'm having surgery......we shall see how they take the news. Did anyone else get Norco for pain after surgery?

@@Alyting I found that chicken bone broth with a small bit of sodium helps with the sweet overload ... even when it's SF.

@missblonde20 Thank you for preparing me for this week. I appreciate the important information. Thanks for the support!! @@suzeroonie Thanks for the post. It's great that we're both preparing for a better future! See you on the Losers Bench! UPDATE: Day 2 Drinking a little salted vegetable broth helped with the headache. I'm doing better today.

Today is the second day on liquid diet and tomorrow is my pre op appt with the surgeon. Getting excited!! Binge watching "My 600 pound life". I can't help watching and getting my mind frame set to succeed no matter the obstacle! Prayers for those who've gone before me and will go after me. Meet you on the Losers Bench!
