Mine is Clear Liquids wk1, then Liquids wk2, pureed wk 3&4,soft diet 5&6, then regular foods Oh, and mine is gonna be for by-pass Munky

Yeah, broth, you just said you're suppose to be still on full liquids.. How far out are you? Munky

Are you Journaling? Are you being completely honest with yourself? Are you staying away from Pasta n bread n white potatoes.. Gotta watch the fruit too.. Full of sugar.. When I was doing a high Protein low to no carbs I dropped #s Munky BTW.. No I haven't had surgery yet either Munky

Thank you lipsticklady. I think some of you advice will be very helpful. I think the teeth brushing/listerine and/or listerine strips sounds like it may help me. Having that taste in my mouth my detour me from eating some right after that. Again thank you! Sent from my SM-G935P using the BariatricPal App I agree with @@LipstickLady about the being bored thing.. I realized that about myself.. I'd find myself wanting something to eat, and when I consciously thought about it I realized I was just bored.. I love doing adult coloring books, that helps, I also crochet rag rugs.. Just another thought Munky

I'm sitting here totally giggling at myself.. I'm on this pre surgery diet.. I only have a very few things I'm allowed to select off to eat up to 6 serv a day in addition to my 4 Protein drinks .. Wanna know what I'm "cheating" with... Eating spaghetti squash with Chipotle chili seasoning ???? not cake, not Pasta, not chocolate.. Spaghetti squash.. LoL ???????????? Munky

I thought that was the funniest spelling error ever. I have to try this zoodle stuff now. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Omg I'm totally cracking up.. Although these days I feel like I typo like a mfr (that wasn't a typo lmao) Munky

Fake your brain out with some sf chocolate pudding or whatever flavor you really like Munky

WHUUUUUUUT?? What does that even mean? I think it means you're taking me to 7eleven while thy choke down a sleeve o crackers? Munky

Riiiiiight. I'm still giggling. I am too.. I wanted to just hit the laughing emoji like on fb Munky

Personally I'd buy it.. I'm not running out wasting money but I need a coat.. It's a great deal.. Love it.. I deserve nice things.. I can sell it next year for what I paid for it.. Win win or donate if I chose Munky

"regular" people aren't use to having to drink their meals so I'm sure they have a tougher time n lose weight because of that.. Just my thinkin anyways.. But I hope all goes well for you! Munky

I would think it shouldn't really be a big change for you though.. You already know how to make sure to get your Proteins in Munky

@gplesniak.. She really is the last one that would hold back on sayin it like it is.. IJS Munky

I'm just concerned where you said after you had the band removed " you ate like it was going out of style" for the 2 months till VSG.. Which makes me feel like you really haven't wrapped your head around the changes you have to make and not just count on the sleeve to do all the work.. I hope you're able to take the tool and work it it to get where you want to be! Munky

I use the nectar powder. I'm not sure what he means about limited flavors they have quite a few.. I have orange cream, banana cream, strawberry Mousse, Grape, sour apple, chocolate Truffle.. They are good! Munky

I've never ever seen pickle juice on a liquid diet list.. I doubt it.. Very very salty Munky Didn't your doctor give you a list of what was OK? Munky

@Tminis are you eating carbs in there? Munky

Thank you, I'm kinda wondering because Fibro makes our bodies over react to pain stimulus.. But yeah, I'm hoping(pretty sure) get the weight off will help the joints lots, but this pain that radiates down my leg I think is an issue getting worse in my spine.. But I know without this surgery I might as well be taken out to pasture n shot.. That's where I'm at Munky

They sell them at Walmart, Sam's Club, someone said also costco.. I don't know about the powdered stuff but I imagine if it's the same name it's sorta the same stuff.. Munky

Thank you @ladyslim2015.. Im just really concerned because I have so much issues right with my hips and the pain it's scares me about what it's going to be like after surgery :-/ Munky

@Jane1979.. Well yeah, I am LoL Munky

I have Fibromyalgia & Lyme Disease(which I believe caused me to have arthritis everywhere) I would like to hear from people that have either or both and have already had surgery and how it affected the pain and ability to be mobile. I already have horrible issues with my hips and walking. I was awake off n on most the night from radiating pain down my leg. Thank you in advance Munky

Exactly! Munky

@@Jane1979 I'm 52 and knew what it meant LoL @nh-vsgirl.. That's too funny Munky

Couldn't your daughter and/or her BF's family lend you a small cooler for your stay there? Or you could even perhaps pick up a cheap styrofome(sp?) one Munky
