I'm easing my way in... I start my preop Tuesday so I'm slowly adding shakes I'm so when I do state I'm not going from 3 regular meals to 2 shakes and a meal. I'm doing a shake for lunch and lighter meals for the day. Hopefully it'll help.

Just keep your eye on the prize. Think how badly you want this. The first few days are rough but it gets easier. You can do it!

I am one week into my pre-op diet. My doctor did not require me to do a liquid diet. I am allowed chicken and turkey breast no skin, lean cuts of deli meat, tuna, unlimited Protein Shakes, egg whites, sugar free Jello, sugar free pudding and sugar free popsicles but absolutely no fruits or vegetables. I am down 8 pounds in one week. It is a challenge with the few choices that I have so I am certain all liquids are tough.

I was able to walk around and eventually out of the hospital under my own power with no wheelchair like 6 hours after the surgery started. In and out. I was in pain for a few days afterward, but I avoided the heavy duty meds the gave me and took children's Tylenol and gas X. The only pain I really felt was the incision sites and a little gas.

I had the band surgery. The other surgeries may be different.

      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! 😞
