I'm doing much better today. Everything is still kind of running straight through me, but I am trying to get it all in and drink a little more slowly.

The Protein Shakes will grow on you. I'm working on some recipes to make them better. I added unsweetened almond coconut milk, Water, tiny bit of Splenda, and cocoa powder to a scoop of banana flavored Syntha-6. It's yummers, but I have to drink it soooo slowly.

Be patient and hang in there, it will get better! Our bodies just need time to adjust :-) and we will be healthier before we know it.

Shoot me a message anytime!

Hi, you and I are sleeve sisters. I am October 22 also. Pre op testing is Oct. 10. I won't know until then if and how long I would have to do a pre op diet. But I have cut back and have been trying shakes and bars. Good luck.

YES! Tons of patience. I'm guessing we will get used to it. I have been taking the first half hour of the day to make sure I get all of my meds and supplements in.

Yesterday wasn't great and I didn't get much in, but I've been taking it much slower today and I seem to be doing a lot better.

Slow and steady! We will get there :-D

One day liquid diet oMG I would have loved that as my pre op diet no 14 days. And then the day before surgery I have to drink 1/4 of this nasty liquid to clean my intestines I don't even want to think about it

Just take it easy! You don't want to bust out the stitches from laughing so hard! Lol! It's nothing wrong with having a sence of humor. It may take longer for your recovery but you will be happier all the same.
