Okay so it had to happen right, a little over four days and I am going crazy! I don't mind the drinks - muscle milk, premier Protein, EAS, they are all pretty good, but they are all sweet! I want something savory.....something that tastes like dinner, not desert! I just fixed the kids macaroni and cheese, and I chewed it and spit it out! Sad, I know, but I am going crazy! HELP please.

Can you have creamed Soups? Warm chicken broth sipped from a mug?

Michele - thank you for your response. I just had beef broth, but it seems just like sucking on a salt lick! I know I sound whiny....and this is what I signed up for. I knew this would be hard, I just can't be snapping at my kids at every meal, just because I can't eat what they do. I can't imagine nothing but sweet drinks between now and Aug 7 either!

I mixed Unjury unflavored Protein Powder into every broth and cream Soup I could find....Swansons hot and sour base broth, tortilla soup base broth, chicken broth, beef broth, strained wonton soup, lobster bisque, Tomato Soup, cream of spinach, cream of asparagus, cream of shrimp, cream of mushroom, cream of chicken, cheddar cheese soup, potato leek soup, etc... I diluted and strained the cream Soups while on full liquids and ran them through the blender once I was on mushies. And beware not to heat over 140 degrees or the Protein will clump.

Hi there, I am 9 days post op and feel the same way you are feeling. Having to cook for your family and being around people who are constantly eating is not easy. I'm pretty tired of the shakes as well. I ordered the Unjury chicken Soup and it does taste decent, but it's still a liquid. It's just a nice change from the sweet shakes. I find myself being grumpy sometimes, because I want food.

      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!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
