Hi all. New poster here. I had my VSG surgery on 4/28. Started my liquid pre-op diet on 4/14. I lost 30 pounds pre-surgery and 10 more after the procedure. Look forward to hearing all your stories

I had mine on 4/28, too. Getting all of my Protein and Fluid in has been a struggle. The last couple of days have been easier though. I am getting about 50-60 protein and 50 fluid. (last week I had days I was lucky to get 24 ounces of fluid in a day) I was almost 15 lbs down since surgery date as of yesterday morning. I woke up and weighed this morning and I was up half a pound. I am assuming that is b/c I am finally consuming the amount of fluids I should be (or closer to it) . I have got to stop weighing in every day.

I will be sleeved April 28. My pre-op diet is odd. 2 weeks of a morning Protein Shake (my choice as long as its 25-30 grams of protein). Both lunch and dinner can only be a Healthy choice brand Steamer select or Cafe steamer Meal.
