  9. Today was my 3 weeks post op appointment with my surgeon & I was anxious to get in the scale I am so happy I lost 14 pounds in 3 weeks. Next week I can start eating solid food & also I can exercise my Bariatric team gave me a one month membership at the hospital where I got my surgery done. I don't regret taking the decision to have vsg my sugar levels are going down I have more energy than before & I feel great. This journey is not going to be easy but at the end is going to be rewarding. Good luck to everyone in this new journey hope everybody can be successful.

My sugars levels are going down and I feel great. Starting next week I can eat solid food & I am going to start exercising on Thursday since my Bariatric group gave me a 1 month free membership at the hospital gym where I had my surgery. Good luck to everyone starting this journey is not going to be easy but it will be rewarding at the end.

  23. Don't worry about I did the same thing too. especially because I couldn't tolerate none of the protein shakes it happens. I started getting hungry a week after surgery so I think Is pretty normal until we can adjust our minds & bodies.
  24. How everyone I just had my vsg surgery on 5/22/17. I am almost 3 weeks out I feel great, my incision are almost heal I am tolerating liquids fine the only problem I encounter was not liking none of the protein shakes. My last resource was the sugar free carnation breakfast & I like it. The only problem is I was worried because 13 grams of protein per shake is not enough to meet the requirements so I bought fairlife milk that have 13 grams of protein plus the the shake makes it 26 grams of protein in each shake. Just putting it here just in case anyone else have a similar situation or problems with the protein shakes. I am very excited with this new journal I am starting can't wait to start exercising.
