Thank you Lisha73! I did survive, barely...lol. I tried to get my fourth in but couldn't make it all the way through. I drank the rest when I got up today. I went and bought some nectar in Crystal Sky. I'm hoping it will help break up the monotony of chocolate shakes. I just so want to actually EAT something, ya know? I am so emotional right now and I'm hoping its just my body trying to get used to this.

I am hear for ya if you need to talk....The crystal sky reminded me of a medice I had as a child but It is palatable...

I knew that I would not survive on chocolate and strawberry shakes...I have gotten the cheese and the chicken Soup from unjury...they are a warm version and very good...you can go out to unjury.com and buy them...The cheese one is a seasonal and they are on sale right now...as it will not be available this summer

The Soups I am talking bout are Protein Shakes in a warm version...they are actually a medical grade Protein too...Unjury is a brand. If you get a chance you might want to call your NUT....The Dr. I use prefers we use the Unjury brand because it is one of the "few" that are medical grade proteins....It is the only brand that our local hospitals use for any patients needing Liquid Protein for any reason...

On your 10 day diet what does that include...so many can have real food on their pre-op diet....ours is CLEAR liquid like juice, broth, Jello, and sherbert and Water and Decaf tea and decaf coffee...that is it!

I am glad that all I have to do is a week of the pre-op diet.. First two days were easy day three was tough. Now I'm on day four and I'm handling it a lot better. Surgery for me and my wife is May 6, we are almost there. It's easier when you have someone to lean on. I hope and pray that it is worth it. I've lost 10lbs so far on the liquid Protein diet.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
