I'm allowed artificial sweetner. What exactly are you having a hard time with? I have yet to be hungry and have to force myself to drink.

I can't have artificial sweeteners either, they give me a Migraine.< /p>

If you're looking for Protein drinks, Jay Robb has some that use Stevia, which I CAN use.

You were not given a food list ? Go to Endobariatric on fb and dr Alvarez has his food list there for every stage. Does that help?

Question for post op people... I had surgery on 10/15. Lost a bunch then stopped immediately when I started my full liquids. I've been logging on My Fitness Pal and I I've gotten the Protein in but I'm only taking in maybe 690 calories per day. I looked through my info from my Nutritionist and don't see any listing of calories per stage, just a list of protein/water requirements. Am I eating too few calories so my body is in starvation mode?? Starting puréed stage today, so maybe my body may react differently... I'm 44 years old... Anyone have particular success in a specific calorie range?

I am only getting in around 500 per day and I'm still losing. Surgery date 10/15 down 35 now. Lost 1 lb overnight last night. Maybe keeping in the 500-600 range helps.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
