Opti fast! Check out nutrient labels. Not great post op but pre op it is the weigh (haha) to go. It is ok after a few weeks post op, but not in the liquid stage. Yes to diet jelly, diet cordial, sugar free lollies and icy poles. Yes to veggies except root veggies like potatoes. Opti fast has a great website to help.

Check out great ideas in nutrition, portion perfection for bands and sleeves. They have a website.

For liquid stage-- resource Protein by Nestlé. 20g Protein in 200mL serve. I split them in half and then sip sip sip the first few days. coffee flavor I liked best :) the sustagen and up n go products gave me diahrea, so resource it was.

Pm me your email address and I will try to scan and email the hospital dietitians advice as I found it most helpful.

What else?

      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! 😞
