Mine has been rough and I've had some complications. I hope and pray you do better. I still can't keep hardly anything down, but I have lost 22.5 pounds. So far I'm still in the regret phase tho :/

I was sleeved 1/27 and I am doing pretty well, I think. No problem getting my Water in-- does not hurt to drink. I like my Protein Shakes and have no trouble with those. I also have some Isopure Zero fruit flavored Protein Drinks that I like a lot. I am starting pureed foods tomorrow... thinking eggs with a little ham and cheese for Breakfast. Excited to be moving to the next phase! I am walking some (although we got a foot of snow today so I did not get my walk in) and went back to work today (I am able to work from home and will be doing that until Thurs. when I am heading into the office!).

Try the shakes from GNC called Total Lean. They are not thick like others I have tried and they are not too sweet either. My shakes were giving me terrible gas and they were too thick. These are better. Good luck.

Awesome job! I pray you will be better soon n be able to appreciate the decision I'm sure u prayed about until the very last moment. It's difficult but worth a healthier u. Lord will u will resolve soon. I'm not on Protein Shakes yet. I'm having Isopure juice type drink until my one week follow up. I will keep u in my prayers @Stephg keep us updated.

One week out today - down 14.4lbs. Had some issues with my body not agreeing with the sucralose that is in most Protein powders. Found some that is made with stevia and now I am finally hitting my daily protein goals. Go back and see my nutritionist on Monday, looking forward to the next phase of this diet. Being able to eat some actual food instead of strained Soups, shakes and Water sounds delightful. Hang in there for all those that are struggling, you are in my prayers. This will get easier. Much love - Heather

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      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!!
