Wow, I'm starving on the liquid diet. Day 2/14. I suppose just keep eating/drinking. It shouldn't be a problem until you're sleeved.

As many as I want just not more than 1200 calories, the glucerna is 180 cals ea.... I don't drink juice or soda so I have to drink caseloads of these things.

Well the good thing is that you can have up to 1200 calories on these things!

I've never had glucerna so I don't know how they taste (I did premier) if you feel satisfied with what you took in today, then I think that's great. The good thing is if tomorrow you feel you need more you can have more!

(I was on shakes only on my pre op. I was allowed 800 a day)

They are good but not that good that I can have 6 of then in one day lol. I bought some myoplex and slim fast shakes too so hopefully I'll survive these two weeks.

Child's play!

3 scoops in 12oz of Water = 280 calories. If you want to make it extra tasty, use milk instead of Water.

:D

Your woman card, hand it over! :lol:

There are other AMP Wheybolic flavors (Cookies and Cream, strawberry, Vanilla) that you could try.

      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?

      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
