But do they help make you feel full during the liquid diet?

Absolutely! They are your main source of satisfaction. I found that I needed about 20g of Protein every 4-5 hours to manage hunger pre-op, and it worked pretty well. It also helps prevent muscle loss.

Today is my next to the last day on the pre-op, Clear Liquids + Protein, diet. Tomorrow it's only clear liquids. Then Valentine's Day! The day I fall in love with my self all over again! I'm super nervous and excited and feeling really pressured because I procrastinated and don't have lesson plans ready for my classroom! I was leaving it until the end so I would have something to occupy my mind tomorrow when I can have ONLY clear liquids!

My BFF who was sleeved over a year ago assures me that this pre-op thing that we are doing, in all its variations, is the hardest part. I am so relieved to hear it and so are my students! :)

During the clear liquid stage my dr recommended the Protein Shots as they are clear. I'd never heard of it until this past Fri but I found them in Walmart....can't wait to try them starting tomorrow after surgery!

Just a constant headache for me so far. But I can't concentrate, and have a really hard time at work since it's hard to concentrate. My boss tells me something, and I just want to tell her "I really don't care!" LOL...

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      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!!
