Hi everybody

I'm from NJ and I'm in month #2 of my 6 month pre-op diet. I would like to know if anybody has been under the care of and had surgery with NJ Bariatric Center and how was your experience.

Hi everyone, I'm POD19 from my sleeve surgery. I'm doing pureed now although I still get comfort in my liquids. I'm honestly having a hard time getting my Protein in...and my liquids. Looking for anyone who is willing to be a friend during this process who understands how hard this ish is. :D :(

Hi DivineRN, What really helped me were my Premier Protein shakes about 30g of protein per serving really helped me get a good amount in quickly. I also kept a large bottle of Water with a natural protein flavor packet with me all day and sipped as much as I could! Lastly, greek yogurt, cottage cheese and pureed chicken pot pie were go to's. Hope had helps! The scale moving kept me pretty motivated during that time.

@@NoMoreWeightNJ I'm so happy that stage us over. I'm doing much better now that I'm eating food again. I'm able to get anywhere from 85 to 100 in Protein. Water is a whole different beast.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
