Well done on the loss!! I've only lost 12lbs so far hoping to get another 5 off before surgery. This morning I had no appetite at all but now I'm very hungry about to have my salad lunch. Thinking about having a bar or shake for dinner. I am so tired thought I'd get over that by now. We have an added bonus that we have to move out of house into a flat for a month due to house flood so battling that too at the moment.

My surgery is at 1.00pm UK time so 8am US time. Tammy if I drink anymore Water I'm going to float away. I'm about 3-3.5Ls everyday. My meals are 1 weetabix, 2 small pieces of fruit, a salad lunch with 50g Protein and dinner is 50g protein either a small potato or 2 tablespoons of rice and veg. I'm taking my Vitamins as well. Today I've added some nuts because I'm just drained. Guess my lady free appearing doesng help with the tiredness.

So...I added unflavored Protein powder to Jello I made the other day. It didn't turn out that hot, doesn't taste bad just didn't dissolve and left clumps and a sludge at the bottom of the bowl. A friend of mine who also had sleeve told me to try adding the Protein powder to the cold Water because the powder gets a weird consistency with Water over 140 degrees. Tried that tonight...so far so good. I will know in the morning if my Jello turned out perfect.

Had final meeting with surgeon today, pre-admissions done, and labs drawn. All set for the 4th!!!

Now, I've got a question: I want to make up some sugar free jello and pudding with Protein Powder added to them - does anyone know if I can freeze Protein powder like that?? And what about broth?

I want to try to have as much prep done beforehand as I can. I'd love to hear any suggestions ^_^

Looking forward to seeing how it came out...please share the results ;)

Jello came out great!!!! Actually I used my Blender Bottle to mix the cold water and a half a scoop of protein powder no weird taste of anything.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
