Congrats, that’s so great! As a recovering (disposable) straw addict, I’m excited to try a straw and see if I have the same result. I feel like I could drink so much more that way. Silly, but it’s how I’m used to drinking fluids.

I’m currently starting week three of a stall. I did lose 35 pounds during the liver shrinking diet and the first few weeks after surgery. They told me to expect this but damn if I’m not ready for some weight loss! It’s definitely disheartening.

I've lost 40 pounds since my surgery on November 16th. I've stalled now for the last couple of weeks. After surgery my sense of smell was out of this world. To the point where certain bottled waters smelled bad to me. I'm finally drinking more Water, but I know it's not enough. I'm still testing certain foods and no matter what I'm eating I can only take a few spoons full. I too am ready for more weight loss. lol. I had absolutely no pain after surgery. If I drink too quickly after eating, then my stomach quickly reminds me of the change.

Hi surgery twin! How was Thanksgiving for you?

It was rougher than I thought it would be. What about you?

It won't be forever! You can do it. We all get through it. It's worth it in the end. I'm glad you enjoy your popsicles!

I understand it's just week 2, but my God. lol

It's been 8 days since my gastric sleeve surgery. I'm so over this liquid diet. I hate the Protein Shakes. I want something I can chew on. broth, strained Soups. My saving grace has been sugar free popsicles.

I just had my gastric sleeve surgery on November 16th.
