Hello everyone who just got sleeved or who answered...

Are u drinking Protein drinks ?

If so what kind ?

I'm drinking nectar ones mixed with Water I also dilute apple juice. And when I feel I can't get water down or fluids I'll chew ice crunch ice from sonic is the best

I eat sugar free Jello and with full liquids I eat cream of wheat and I feel full I make it watery so that it's easy to go down. I do get hungry at times but I drink fluids to take that hunger away.

I was feeling pain in my larger incision but it has gone away now

I also eat vanilla Greek yogurt no fruit in it also if u feel u can't front Protein Drinks cuz they are to plain u have a nutrabullet and I put ice in it and. Frozen fruit like peaches mango bananas a scoop of protein and water and make it like a smoothie then I spoon it like ice cream it's the best if j don't finish it I'll put it in the freezer till I'm ready for more and just let it thaw and blend it again

I was sleeved on 8/9/2016. So far I have had no problems to talk about. Which I am very happy about. I get my Protein in each day does not see a problem. However I am still on the liquid diet. My only problem is is trying to get all the Water necessary in me. I don't particularly like water nor have I found another type of juice or or drink that I do like so that is the hardest part for me thus far. I hope everything is going well for you and if you have any thoughts on different drinks to get my liquids in I'd appreciate anyone to answer thank you

I do crystal light and unsweetened iced tea with lemon

@@Ruby1 Try decaffeinated tea (flavored - iced or hot), infused water, power ade zero, sugar free popsicles, broth, Vitamin Water Zero, crystal light or water flavor drops.

I don't like regular Water as well. I flavor mine with crystal light just enough for me to drink it and make it very cold. SF ice pops and decaf herbal teas (raspberry zinger) also help to get the liquids in.

I'm on stage 2 puréed foods, along with my 3 Protein shakes daily. I just now had about 1/4 cup of light progresso cream of potato Soup with some finely shredded chicken breast. Small bites and chew chew chew!! Lol I was sleeved on 08-12-16. Things are going well.

I wish you and everyone the best of luck.

5 wks post-op & been on a full diet since 8/31. Still struggling to get enough fluids and calories in every day.....I've only been able to get to 800cal twice so far....still at about 2 ozs per meal (tho' last night I had 3 ozs for dinner & was miserable)....yesterday I hit 32 ozs of Water but it was not easy.....really not hungry & food isn't appealing to me....WLS medical team said that every thing I'm experiencing is completely normal for this stage of recovery and that I'm doing great....wish I had more energy & WLS medical team says that once I'm eating & drinking more my energy will increase.

All & all very happy with my decision.

Nice to meet other VSGs with similar surgiversaries!!!
