Having surgery April 26th....anyone else scheduled for April?

Oh. We were the same day then. Glad u are doing well!

Thank you, now I am on day 7 and I have lost 36 pounds. I weighed 296 and now I am weighing in at 260!!!

Ya know' date=' I agree, it is hard to calculate. My shake has 35 G protein, so I still drink that for breakfast and assume the small portions of protein for lunch and dinner are enough. Not the best answer, but that's what I do.[/quote']

Thanks what kind of shake u drink mine only have 20grams protein

Surgery day is tomorrow! Yeah!!

Me too Letty, good luck!

I eat cream of chicken 2 table spoons and put a scoop of unflavored protein in it that's how I get my protein in I don't know what just happened 2 me but I was feeling real depressed 4 bout a hour with regrets maybe cause its bout 2 b my time of the month I hope I don't ever feel like that again don't like that feeling @ all & neither did my hubby I also do the liquid form of vitamins twice a day sorry I'm all over the place writing this

Don't stress, I've been exstreamly depressed I was told by a friend who also had the surgery that week 2-4 ur hormones change and u have really down days I've had two good days but the rest of my days I've cried to my hubby and my mum regretting it but I think about it and know it will be better in time what's the vitamins liquid that u are taking? What's the protein powder? I don't get much food in at all but def trying more water each day

I was sleeved April 8 prepared myself physically and mentally for this procedure used VST for support but mostly info.I've had my days of ups and downs but nothing drastic i just thank God i made it through the procedure and pray for good health for the remainder of my life. I'm okay with getting in whatever amount of food and liquids i get in because each day it gets better. I have a daily focus on no vomiting, i was told that its okay if you only get in small amounts in the first stage and in the beginning my saving grace with fluids has been mostly sf popsicles. I find myself looking for small things to eat that's high protein tried smoked oysters yesterday rinsed and ate what i could as lunch and popped the rest in my mouth throughout day 11g protein.I've made the decision, no time for regret, if no complications I'm just continuing as planned.

Thanks what kind of shake u drink mine only have 20grams protein

I have bariatric fusion shakes that I mix w lactaid that have 35 or 36 g of protein and sams club carries a milk based shake called premier shakes w 30g of protein in them. The chocolate of that shake is the best to me. They also have vanilla.

That is great. Surprisingly I haven't weighed myself since being home. I actually lost about 60 lbs pre op so I guess I've just been ok knowing that. Also, I lost my "gas and fluid' weight before I left the hospital.

I take the nutrametrix vitamins u can order them online @ www.yourvitaminshere.com & I use the isopure unflavored protein powder rarely I use the gnc wheybolic chocolate protein shake & I don't eat a lot either that's y I mix my unflavored protein with bout 2 tabkespoon cream of chicken its easier for me 2 get it down that way & 20 grams protein I also find that its easier for me 2 get more water in if I use a regular cup instead of the bottle my doc recommended

My surgery is Monday. I'm super excited

I like Pure Protein banana cream and chocolate. 35g protein, 1g sugar, from amazon, target, and Walmart.
