Do you also have to do a 2 week liquid diet before surgery? I do also. What kind of Protein powder or shake are you using? How many are you doing a day in addition to a dinner meal? As far as the caffeine, It's gonna be a killer for me to not have my morning coffee! I need to start getting myself ready as well.

I do Bariatric Advantage non flavored to add to Water or other things. And Premier shakes from costco. Once I figure out my surgery date then I start the two week liquid diet. I will be only allowed liquid. No solids. I do two to three shakes a day, plus a light dinner. I'm using anywhere from 900 to 1100 cal a day.

      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! 😞
