I was sleeved April 25. I was never an apple juice drinker, but i love it now. I drink the lite apple juice. sugar free.

I drink a lot of crystal light,& zero Vitamin waters.

I just gained an appetite Friday, along with the appetite I am thirstier as well.

I'm only able to drink 1 high Protein ensure a day and that is only 25 grams of Protein.

I've been eating about 1/2 can Of 98% free cream of Ckn Soup a day.

Any other suggestions on Soups? I feel like the crm of Ckn Soup has a ton of sodium,& I wnt something different.

Hello everyone, After writing a few days ago that I am tolerating liquids well, now I am experiencing feelings of flushing (for lack of a better word) and slight nasuea. It figures. I actually wrote a separate post to see if others experienced this. My surgeons office said this happens and is normal. Thanks to MGM for the advice about the Protein packets. I am definitely going to check that out. I can't imagine ever taking in anough protein at this point in my journey. Hopefully it keeps getting better. But I must only be taking in about 100 to 200 calories a day. Surprised I am still walking around. I guess you can live off your fat. LOL

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
