Oh ok. I can't have any caffeine. And no meals either. 21 days of horribleness but it will be worth it

@@monopoly2015 I can't have meals either really, except I guess I do count my broth & cottage cheese as a meal. I save that up all day & have it for my dinner. I thought if I gave myself something to look forward to I would be less likely to feel so deprived on straight liquids all day. I have a friend that's having her surgery the 6th with a different Dr than me & she can have a lean meat & salad for dinner. Its weird how different drs have different guidelines. I'm scared to cheat though. I'm afraid it will somehow cause me problems during or after surgery, or that when he gets in there he'll be able to tell lol. @@losing.it.lulu I feel the same way. I think my body has just gave up at this point on ever seeing solids again. I told hubby tonight that I think my stomach feels like it would reject anything solid if I even tried lol. :)

I'm on day 6 of 10. I'm down 6 pounds since I started the actual liquid diet Sunday. I started a doing 2 shakes & a lean meal 12/4 when I found out for sure that I would get to have surgery January 7th & all together I'm down 12 pounds from that. Today has been my easiest day yet on the liquid diet. People at work have tried so hard not to even talk about food this week, lol, but I told them today I'm pretty much over it now. Its almost like a new habit to me now lol.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
