Woohoo. We need to keep up with each other! Anyone starving yet!?! I'm mentally hungry and belly hungry some times! What does a clear liquid diet consist of?

Clear Liquids is clear Protein Drink (Isopure is the only one I know of besides unflavored Protein added to water). SF Jello, SF Popsicles, and broth. And of course Water. I think you can still use Crystal light (or whatever brand you use).

I am on the 28th! Feeling a little left out of the september group being that it is the very end of the month! I am 41, 5 ft 1 and 231 lbs. I am a little nervous because just this week my allergies have flared up and I have a cough. I do not want to be coughing after surgery. Staying dilligent on my allergy medicine and praying nothing gets messed up!!!! Pre op diet is vegetarian low fat so I am not suffering to bad. Practicing on Protein Shakes and found some good combos I like. :)

There are plenty of us late Sept sleevers :-) I'd love to hear about what you all are doing to add variety to you Protein Drinks. So far I've experimented with unsweetened almond milk, SF vanilla Creamer, Splenda/trivia and ice. When I can I will use the Magic Bullet to blend.

Forget to include that I'm using Bariatric Advantage strawberry Protein for pre op diet but had also experimented with nectar flavors and a few Jay Robb flavors.

      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! 😞
