I finally got my date today! I will be getting my surgery on March 9th!!! I am so excited and 100 things are running through my head! Any advice from people who have already had the surgery? Any one else getting theirs done in March??

Hi All, I'm finally home today...3 days post-op and it feels good. Still mainly on clear liquids and squeezing in some full liquids. I'm drinking about 16 ounces of water, 8oz. Of liquid protein and some jello. I have not started my vitiamns yet, probably tomorrow. Walking around the house but still very sleepy. How is everyone else doing?

Hi Lala. My surgery was 6 days ago. My incisions are still pretty sore but otherwise I'm feeling better. I'm fighting the daemons in my head that want ice cream.

the deamons in head are the worst part of everything.

I got mine done March 23rd still recovering I don't feel hungry wish is good but I need to take the protein I tried the shakes and my new stomach did not like it :/ any other suggestions?

@@agalindo17 Keep trying.. try different kinds.. make sure you are getting in as much liquid as possible. Lots of water.

What did you mix your shake with? From what I understand a lot of people have an aversion to milk after the surgery. I was sleeves on the 25th and I've been using isopure drinks to get in my protein.

Ok I'm 7days post op doing pretty good my incisions are healing THEY ITCH OMG i still have soreness i believe I'm doing pretty good on my liquids i got thru 2 16.9oz bottles of water 2 cups of broth 1 1/2 protein shakes yesterday I'm striving for a Lil more today. I'm still feeling a Lil tired but I'm not napping off and on again so that's good. My biggest problem is how i lay at night to sleep

For those having new issues with milk... I was lactose intolerant before surgery & lactaid milk is a great choice. It has everything milk has, without the pain and discomfort! Good luck!

I am 12 days out and I want a pickle so bad! I don't know why, maybe because my post op diet has so much sweet with the shakes, jello, drinks, and such. Not to mention everything is soft & I guess I am missing chewing. I want a pickle or even a few olives lol! I know it's all in my head & I'm glad I'm not craving something really bad but still. In two days I can start on phase two. Maybe when I can have baked fish and soft vegetables that will get rid of that craving!

I love almond milk in mine! Makes them so much creamier than just with Water.

and I would love a pickle right now!!

Lol! Glad I'm not the only one with a pickle craving! Almond milk is delicious, but I chose Lactaid because it has more protein.

today is my first day with protein shakes, lets see how i receive them.

Two weeks po-op tomorrow. Feeling great down 16lbs and 8 inches. Go back for check up 4/1.

I'm only one week post op and I feel weak shakes are getting old Joe did you do it.

I want salt sick of sweet fluids
