Dmaddox1 I also start my liquids December 1 which will be my first day back from vacation so I will look forward to a 7 day detox LOL. My surgery date is December 8th. I am excited knowing this will be my last vacation being overweight shying from photos and I will make my weight goals next year

How you doing on the liquids? I can't seem to find a Protein Drink that is not icky! They are tolerable, but just have a horrible after taste and they are too thick. This is our 4th day of these drinks and I am already tired of them. How bout you?

I'm a newbie too. Just joined today. My surgery date is scheduled for December 29th. I am on week two of the pre-surgery diet and finding it to be a challenge. Shocker huh? How's everyone else doing with the waiting bit?

I'm doing better on the shakes! I finally (after spending a fortune on them) found one I could handle! I guess you could say the Unjury brand is my favorite! They seem to be lighter & not so milky like! I'm not a milk drinker anyways...so I like them! I am retired...so I throw them in my ninja with 1/2 cup skim milk & 1/2 cup Water & 4 ice cubes! Not a Sonic malt by any means...but I am not hating them so! How are you doing?

Many blessings to all that are headed to surgery this month. We'll are be starting the New Year much healthier!!

I like the idea of a new year with a new healthy plan.

      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! 😞
