Thank you, You are going to do great. Positive thoughts and looking on the good side of this

will help you out a lot. Hard to believe that I had my surgery on Thursday. I feel great.

My biggest advise is WALK, WALK, WALK, it will get your blood flowing and your gas out. My

thoughts are with you.

I started the liquid diet about 3 1/2 weeks ago... On Friday I should (hopefully) be able to start introducing foods back into my stomach

So I had my sleeve done 2/11/15 and today I can say I feel great! I was pretty sick with gas pain for the first 3 nights but by day 4 I felt like myself for the most part. Anyone want to know my whole ordeal I am happy to share but meanwhile I just want to share that I have lost 13 pounds this week alone and I am excited about the future! I Thank God for the time we live in!

They gave me the okay to start Protein with milk yesterday, 4 days post-op. So far what I did is I use 8oz Simply Smart fat free milk (10 grms. protein) plus vanilla Unjury (21 grms. of protein) plus I put a scoop of GENEPRO (unflavoured protein) which has 30 grms. of protein so in those 8 oz. I can get the required 60 grms. of protein for the day. I do not love the flavor but I am not really carzy about Protein Shakes. Once I can start with yogurts and the other stuff I am planning on just using the Genepro unflavoured protein in yogurt, cream Soups, etc., I have tried it before and it really does not change the texture or taste.

I'm glad you had a better day, Pato!!! It's only uphill from here. It feels like it will be forever until I can actually chew again (and even longer until I can satisfy my popcorn craving), but I'm hanging in there and trying to find the bright spots where ever possible. How are you taking your protein in during the clear phase? Today is the first day I could have any because it creates a viscous liquid rather than a clear one.

51 grams protein in one shake.. That just sounds miserable and thick like mud.. How was it?

If I may weigh (lol) in about this when I got home from the hospital I was drinking a Premier Protein shake (30 protein) and adding a scoop of Protein Powder and anywhere from a half cup to a cup of Water and that way my morning shake was 57 Protein and I was getting in some water too. It made it a little easier for me. Got the idea when my doctor said he starts his day off with a Protein Shake and added extra water....so could some powder hurt....lol. Got my protein in every day.

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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
