Remove soda completely from your diet. As for chips, why? Are you looking for crunch factor? If so, there are others ways to get that crunch feeling.

If it must be chips, there are some good Protein chips alternatives out there that can be used as a treat, but not an everyday thing. By treat, I mean once a week.

I trust the surgeon when he advised against Diet Coke, etc. I think the carbonation causes bloating, not to mention the unhealthy affect on us by soft drinks. I am thankful to have lost my addiction to Diet Coke and will take Water any way. As far as chips, if I wanted to eat chips I would not have had the sleeve. If you eat like that you need to stay overweight and not put yourself through surgery. Make sure you always have healthy food with you, so you won't be tempted.

@@KristenLe I honestly think this is a prank... If it's not, it really doesn't even merit a response at this point. If the OP didn't care enough to read her post op instructions or listen to her NUT, then I don't care enough to offer a response. For people with honest, heartfelt questions, I will give all my time. For posts like this, well, it's just a waste. I'm excited for you to finally get sleeved - bc you are an EXPERT at this point and are going to be so successful!!

      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.
