Hi all! New to group!! I had my surgery on March 17! I'm having a really hard time mentally. It's like as soon as I start eating I'm full and I want to keep eating. I have a family and I have to smell the things their cooking so that is hard too. Wednesday I get to start eatting some real food (meats, lunch meats, veggies) so I am hoping this helps some. I am so tired of the Protein Shakes as I read from a lot of other members. I use Unjury and ever since surgery it just seems so sweet to me, anyone else have this problem?? But good news is it's been 12 days and I'm down 20lbs! It doesn't feel like it to me yet :) still sore but trying take it one day at a time!!

For anyone who is sick of Protein Shakes my doctor gave me a list of low cal high Protein shakes you can make yourself, they are easy and good and not super expensive, and they are not so sickening sweet as store bought! I'll be happy to share if you email me your email address. Mine is nebrfan19@hotmail.com

Hello sorry to hear that I've heard a few ppl go thur this maybe you should try some mash potatoes really mash mix it with some low fat ricotta or whatever you think will make it super soft .... Also Try the chili from Wendy's super high in Protein and it's yummy. And maybe to prevent anything from coming up don't drink 30 mins before eating and 30 mins after Eating , oh yeah and last thing like an hour or two take an omeprazole too avoid any acid and if that doesn't work call your surgeon , don't want to dehydrate your self !!! Hope all works out

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
