Nice. I don't have a liquid diet. Just one day prior Clear Liquids. And I'm working a 12 hr shift that's gonna be so hard. Lol. Good luck and keep me posted on the 29th the day after. I'll be waiting to see what I may feel like one day later habaha

You lucked out with no liquid diet! I must say I'm pleasantly surprised, now 4 days into it, that I'm not starving. Thank you Protein shakes!! lol Working 12 hrs is not so fun, but at least it will keep you occupied and not thinking about food. I hope this will be like when I had my gallbladder out .. wishful thinking :) Just gives me a few more little scars to add to my collection lmao Wish you the best and will keep you posted, as I hope you will do the same.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
