I am one day five of the two week liquids and was dreading July 4th. So, I turned it into something positive by joining our church to serve police officers and firefighters meals. I am going to take my Protein Drinks with me. I think if my mind is off of it. I will be okay. I hope I am right. Then my surgery will be four days later on the 8th.

Thank you! That is a wonderful idea I wish there was something like that to do around here.

Best of luck on the 8th..

Hi, I started my two week liquid diet two days ago. I am in the same boat. This is the absolute worst!! I also have to attend a large function on the 4th. I know that the Protein shakes help. I plan to keep moving and stay away from the food. If they are playing games or have other activities, I will be in that area. I might even offer to walk the dog. Anything to keep me from seeing the entire crowd eat. I also plan to download the bariatripal app so that I can get to the support groups for moral support if I need it.

I'm starting a two week liquid diet tomorrow that will last me up until my first weigh in. I'm nervous too about being around all the food and not having it. food smell is probably the toughest for me. I have a strong sense of smell.

But, we can do this... one step at a time. Good luck!!!

      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? 🤷‍♀️
