No I should right? I kind of power thru it. I'm use to drinking it prior to surgery but after surgery, oh lawwd it's like fighting me every ounce. I read some people put crystal light in it? Does anyone know if we can drink our water with crystal light? I mean that would help me out tremendously!!

Happy to hear you're doing well! I agree, the walking helps. I love to walk so being out of the hospital is better for me. I'm walking around my neighborhood and it feels good to be out and about. I went today to buy other flavors of isopure and Lil bottles of water. I was using the big 1.5 liters of water but it was too much to look at and see how much I have to drink. I like looking at the Lil bottles and I only have to drink 3 or 4 at the most.

I'm well thanks. 3rd day at home and I'm still trying to adjust. I'm able to walk with no problems. But I think I'm getting tired of the same taste in liquids. My first day back home I tried the premiere chocolate, omg, bad idea! It tasted chalky and that was long and awful day for me. I don't mind the isopure but it too is becoming a bit too much. Im going to try and mix things up today because I'm feeling better. I have some soreness from the incision area but it manageable. Honestly I just want to feel normal again. I don't like this phase right now. I know I need to get water to not get dehydrated then I need my protein to fuel this body but right now it's all somewhat a struggle. 48oz of water and 80grams of protein is my daily goal at home.

I was May 3rd too. How you doing?

I hope you're doing better today.

A PO in which county?

Praying for you!

You look awesome!

My Dr told me I could take my vit b-12, vit D and multi vit post op. But can't take any of my supplements till later.

I did cj too! What's your career plan after you get your degree?

I agree! Just getting out of surgery was horrible. I was bloated and so drugged up lol I hate not knowing what's going on with me. I got myself up and staggering down the post op room lol Today is my first day in hospital and what a better feeling. I'm a bit whoozy still but I have more a hold on my mind and body that I feel much better.

I'm doing well thanks! I'm in hospital drinking my isopure and water. I just finished on bottle and I have one more to go. My walking is getting better. I was able to walk for 15mins this morning and it felt great!

I like the "resting b****" answer to any questions about wls. I haven't told anyone outside my girlfriend not even family. Thankfully I have been already losing weight for years on my own and I'm thinking everyone will just think I've been doing this for awhile so they won't ask. My girl and I were talking this morning on the drive to get my surgery, today, 5/3/17, and she said prepare yourself because people will ask after the surgery. I don't have a resting b face but I have perfected the don't F look at me face, thanks to my line of work [emoji4]

Checked in the hospital this morning at 5:30am surgery is set at 9am! I only had one day for liquids but I did 3 days just to prepare myself. Not too bad. What really sucked was the darn commercial about food lol! I continued to workout during liquid diet and that was weird. Felt a bit week in the legs but nonetheless I did it. Today during my weigh in I was down 10 more pounds. I have exceeded my Dr recommendation prior to surgery. The next adventure will be post op and I can't wait. In a couple hours a new chapter will begin for me. Again, best of luck to all on this journey and remember all our hard work will pay off!!
