I have a can that I will bring. I also have some Special K Protein Water packets. I think they are strawberry kiwi. They are too tangy for me. I am on a huge peach kick and nothing else tastes very good. Diet Snapple Raspberry tea is about the only other thing I drink besides Water, hot/iced tea or milk.

All packed?????

Does it not taste good because your tastes have changed because of the surgery?

I am!! Thursday was my last day of school. So now I am just trying to wait it out. I KINDA started packing. Not much , mostly I was trying to clean up my room, I am sure I wouldn't want to deal with it when I come home so I took care of it before I left. I went on a relatively large shopping trip to GNC and Walmart to get stocked on SF Popsicles and chicken broth. I am gonna do a video Sunday of what I am taking along with me.. and maybe one before that giving measurement and a weigh in...At this poing I am looking for anything to keep me busy ....Getting a little nervous....Starting to eat everything in the house, but mostly excited = D

It seems very strange - however it is true. It really surprised me. Before surgery, I also drank Fuze Tropical. Can't get thru a whole bottle now. I have not been able to do citrus for about 5 years when my stomach got sensitive and I had my gall bladder out.

I would suggest not buying too much of anything before surgery and seeing what tastes good afterwards.

Also, I loved cottage cheese for the first couple of weeks after surgery - and now it isn't appetizing at all. Maybe I just had too much??

yep : ) I am flying down for the big event. Will be interesting to see it from the other side. And I am anxious to see the new facility.

I am also going to make sure she doesn't sneak any ice chips early! :sad0:

Yeah, don't invest in anything until you get home. I was all gung ho on muscle milk until I got out of the hospital. Bleh. For about a week, everything smelled like smoke to me. (odd, eh?) Nothing smelled or tasted good.

This past week I have started to add in some muscle milk to my diet to up my Protein count and while I can keep it down, it is much harder than before the surgery.

Good luck ladies! Can't wait to see you on the other side! :sad0:

Yeah so far the only thing I have purchased is that one thing of vanilla, and I made sure to get it from GNC cause you can exchange there with a receipt! = D Vanilla generally lends itself well to other flavor and wouldnt take much to make it taste like something nice lol ...ugh seriously my surgery cant get here soon enough now = /

How fun!!! My travel buddy has had a family emergency. He has a family member in the hospital that may or may not make it. He is feeling like he needs to stay close to home (understandable). :thumbup:

If his person improves he will come but I may be on my own. I'm actually okay with it. I'm a very bad patient.... typically just want to be left alone. It just gives a little piece of mind to have a friend there.

Honestly.... He is a big 7'3'' guy with a huge charasmatic personality. He charms everyone everywhere he goes and I was looking forward to him endearing himself to all the doctors and nurses. Oh well. I backpacked the Colorado trail one time - 2 weeks - just me and my dog. I suppose I can do this too.

You guys will have a great time... well... you will.... tiff will have a great experience... I'm just not sure if I would call it fun :wink0:

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

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
