HI everyone. I had my surgery on the 27th and wanted to share my journey and hear about your journey. Feeling better everyday. I had some gas and nausea the day of and after surgery. Still feel the gas, but not the nausea - thank god! I have no problems sleeping, walking or sipping Water. I have taken no meds since I have been home. Determined to not over do it, even though I feel good. I have wanted this so badly, so I am trying to stay positive mentally. But of course you hope that this process helps you be healthier long term and that the short term aches and pains are worth it. Have any of you driven yet? I want to, but I am going to make myself wait until Thursday - my one week anniversary. I am so grateful for this opportunity and can't wait to see what my future brings!

@@TinaTina what kind are you drinking? I drank Premier and they were good

I'm four days post op and love the idea of new options. I've been drinking Premier Protein shakes but am quickly growing tired of my limited options. I see food and feed my family and it all looks sooooo good. If only I could have just a taste... I relish the day I can blend up a meal to taste the same flavors! ...I listen to myself and wonder if this isn't part of my "healing" journey? Seems my obsession with food is a little strong? Either way, I love the idea of introducing some healthy blended options and love the ideas above!

Had surgery 08/25/15, just 2 weeks ago. Was way easier than I thought it would be, I think physcially working out so hard for 3 months leading up made it a lot easier to leave hospital 24 hours after surgery was already back to doing 4000 steps, soon hope to be back to 12,000. However, I am the phase 2 of the diet and the past three days having explosive diahrea sorry if that is TMI. Also, still feel hungry all the time, being very strict with diet, probably need more fluids though, but definitely have enough protien and I even emailed the doctor asking to see if they actually took out enough stomach. Due to fluids I came home 4 pounds heavier, so in total I've lost like 12 pounds in 2 weeks considering I'm eating very literal I'm not very happy about these results. How is eveyrone else feeling post?

I've tried Premiere... Strawberry flavor and it was not for me.. I really liked Core Powers Banana flavor but it was loaded with sugar, calories etc. So finally I tried the Advanced Edge (EAS) chocolate.... And it seems to be tolerable as far as taste goes.
