I ordered the sample pack from Unjury (unjury.com) It came with a chicken broth flavored Protein, not too bad and a change from the shakes. They also include chocolate, unflavored and strawberry. I bought Muscle Milk Light, Adkins and EAS. They all taste about the same. I can't wait until next week to add some yogurt and milk as another way to get protein in. I'm not hitting anything close to 60.

I'm getting more liquids in than I was. I'm sipping more broth and apple juice. I'm just tired of shakes but still trying to drink them

hi

I was banded yesterday and stayed overnight. Came home a few hours ago. I have to say, I feel really good. Today was my first day of being able to drink stuff. I had the swallow test this morning and then was able to start drinking Water, then Ensure. I can't get over how good I feel. I have been walking 30 minute stretches 3-4 times a day. really excited!

My sugery is scheduled for Nov 16! Very excited, but a little nervous. Today is the first day of the second week of the preop diet. Mine seems kinda strict from some of the others ive seen on here. The first week, two Protein Shakes and a bowl of Soup. The second week two Protein shakes and a bowl of blended soup. Anxious to begin this new chapter of my life!!

I was banded on the 6th. It has gone pretty ok. Still have some incision pain but it's manageable. Glad to join this group!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
