I think there are two kinds. You can order from room service, and they are red, and I can't identify the flavour! LOL And then you can buy from the gift shop, but I haven't tried those ones. I've heard that the gift shop ones are best. :D

Lol I never tried them! Haha but meat was definitely the perceived flavor! Hahaha I heard there were good ones in the gift shop but they didn't have them the one time we caught the gift shop open. The chicken broth though?! Was KILLER! Especially if you squeeze a lime into it!!

I've been trying to sip the chicken broth...I get full sooo fast though. And my sleeve is still kinda sore I think...the popcicles are delectable though lol...I had the ones from room service and from the gift shop, loved both!

That's normal! I could barely get anything in the first few days. It'll get better as you heal. Congrats on your exciting new life!!!

Thank you for the input on those! I'll be there on the 15th now since I had to re-schedule. I'll be sure to avoid the meat flavored ones. :P

When I was there, room service brought me two different favors of Popsicles. An orange colored one that was good. Then a purple colored one that was possibly the worst thing I've ever tasted. Unfortunately, I only got the good one once.

When I was there, the popsicles were green and they were horrible...inedible! When we were leaving they asked us for comment on our stay and what they could improve. We told them about the popsicles and they said that they had LOTS of complaints. Hope they have changed them. :unsure: :tongue2:

POPSICLE UPDATE:

This is breaking news, cause I was just in the lobby 10 minutes ago! LOL

They now have a selection of flavours of popsicles in the gift shop. Mango, lime, banana and coconut. The cashier spoke a little English, and she told me none of the fruit flavours had added sugar.

But, beware the coconut! It tastes heavenly, but has shreds of actual coconut in it, which I think are pretty dangerous for the newly sleeved. As soon as I came to my senses, I spit mine out, and it died a sad death in the toilet. :(

I hope I didn't swallow any coconut bits!

Not gonna lie, I feel a little cheated that all they had when I was there were "meat Popsicles" hahaha But I did just fine without them! Lol

I'm sure you'll be ok. Sounds like you did well quitting as soon as you realized it! And I doubt it'll effect you too much even if you did get a few strands. But maybe something worth mentioning to the coordinators so that they can either talk to the hotel about maybe carrying another flavor instead or at least letting the patients know to be aware of it!

Good point, Kristina! I'm really struck by how many of the hotel guests are actually here for bariatric surgery! It's an industry, no doubt, and they obviously want to cater to this clientele. They do a great job of it!

Ick yes when I was there in march the Popsicles were nasty! To make it worse the broth was hit or miss, sometimes I'd get a good bowl and sometimes not. Thankfully after surgery I wasn't hungry and Gatorade was more than enough

      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?

      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
