Have you tried different flavors? I had the same issues with Jello after surgery, it was just too sweet "all of the sudden". I gravitated toward no-sugar added applesauce instead which worked better for me post-op. Now I make homemade applesauce and I love it!

Have not tolerated sf Jello especially if they are the prepackaged ones you can buy in the grocery store, for some reason those turn out sweeter.

It is better if you make it from the box.

Yes these are the packaged ones...I'm on the two week pre diet and having a hard time. She told me I could have up to 4 sf Jello or popsicle but it makes me pucker too lol. Tonight I have headache and feel like crap. I sure hope this passes.

I'm with you Ramona5555! I am actually very sick of Jello! I was never a fan of Jello any how. I've been on the pre op diet for a little over a week and I can't stand the flavors or texture anymore. I threw half a container out today :/.

It is the worst I can't believe i bought it and tried to eat. Blech. Never was a Jello fan. I used the sugar free Popsicles instead.

I get so sick of sweet...I've been drinking flavored Perrier and even though it's slightly bitter, over ice it helps cut all the sweet. I just keep trying to focus on how I'll feel losing some before the BIG day :-) my headache last night turned into another Migraine but took meds and passed out...this morning feel pretty good....I'm like Bob...baby steps to the elevator.....lol

Everything seems so much sweeter since my surgery, too. I went to chicken broth, and you can blend in unflavored Protein powder. That was such a big help for me, especially in the liquid and soft stages. All that sweet really can get to yourself. It gets better. You will soon be past this.

Just think, in a few weeks you will be on the other side of your surgery! does first few weeks are hard work just trying to get in your liquids. Resting, healing, drinking your Water and Protein is about enough to do the first weeks. Soon you will be looking back and and thinking, well that wasn't so bad, and it is an important stage in the healing. Give you body time to adjust. Weight loss will take time. Lots of changes going on inside. Give them time. Learn to listen to the new things your body is telling you. I had ţo learn that. Your body will let you know if you are pushing too fast. Best of luck on your journey.

I agree here the best one is the one you can make yourself. Less sugar and taste better.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
