Hi,

I will have my surgery on February 18th and I just started doing mostly shakes and the ones I am using are great! THEY are the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes and you can get them on line. The chocolate and Vanilla are great. How was the surgery? I am a bit nervous about that....I hope the you like these shakes.

Thanks for the tip will try. Surgery was great i had a lil discomfort the first 3 days but nothing major.. gas pains were a bother but walking is the only thing that helps. Lots of weight loss im down from 277 to 251 and im only 11days post of so its all worth it. Good luck on ur surgery its definitely life changing

I am day 13 postop from VGS and I am also struggling to get my Water and Vitamins in every day. I can do string cheese and cottage cheese and soft eggs which is helping. I made salmon and have done the tuna of course with a little light miracle whip my dietician's idea :) and that has been fine. Refried Beans with a little mozzarella cheese. I have done crockpot dark meat and white chicken in cream of chicken Soup, one time with just low sodium chicken base, and once with onions And mild peppers just for flavor and then puréed it. Any ideas would be great. A little Protein Powder in my fave soup progressive light potato bacon and cheese has only 3 grams fat. Down down 23# since surgery jam 19th.

      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! 😞
