Day 4 for me also. How are you doing? I've actually done better then I thought. Still early though..... I feel this is a great test to our determination and ability to change our eating habits for life.

I've done good. I do get hungry but it eventually passes after a little while. A week prior to this I did start drinking 2 shakes a day and eating about ½-¾ cup of meat for supper. I felt like I needed to do that to prepare me for the full liquid diet. I think it has made it easier. But I did eat a thanksgiving dinner lol. It was going to be my last full holiday meal so I couldn't pass that up. I drank some broth on day 2 but other than that just the shakes. I think I'm gonna stick with the Meal Replacement shakes. I'm glad you are doing well. I know you are as excited as I am. :D

I cut myself too back in November 4 my first surgeon appt to ween myself into small portions and new lifestyle too. Lost on that too. I agree it might be what's making this liquid diet easier. I also have up caffeine and soda. Even though I didn't drink much before. What type Protein Drinks are you drinking. I do prow tie shake premier vanilla or chocolate morning and dinner and a Greek yogurt at lunch. Gets me at 72 grams Protein. Also so excited.

I Have a question about H-pylori. my surgery is for the 29th but I tested positive for h-pylori. I'm on the antibiotics and I retest on the 23rd. What are the chances I could test positive again?

      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? 🤷‍♀️
