I'm assuming my new tummy is pretty swollen because I'm definitely not getting in the ounces or calories I thought I would be. I was actually pretty nervous about following the post-op liquids only diet but it's been much better than I thought.

I am trying to stay hydrated and not be overly concerned with Protein right now.

My liquid diet so far is as follows:

Breakfast - 3 oz. of warm tea mixed with 1 spoonful of powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored Protein powder

snack - 2-3 oz. of Water or Water mixed w/ crystal light

lunch - 2-3 oz. of warm low sodium chicken broth mixed with 1 spoonful of Unjury

Snack - about 1/2 a container of Jell-O, 2-3 oz water

dinner - 3 oz. of warm tea (or broth) mixed with 1 spoonful of Unjury unflavored Protein Powder

Water whenever I think of it. Sip, sip, sip!

Gas pains are getting better as I've been walking. I haven't walked outside yet because we

are having nasty Santa Ana winds today :(

I am following this liquid diet for another 9 days so hopefully it'll be this easy next week!

Good for you! That's nine pounds down! I'm so glad you are feeling better and handling your post-op diet so well. Thank you again for sharing your experiences.

      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.

      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! 😞
