I had my VSG surgery on Wednesday December 14 and by Saturday morning I was down 7 lbs. I'm feeling pretty good as I'm getting out and walking. I felt some hunger earlier today so I had a sugar free popsicle, and a few hours later I sipped a couple teaspoons of chicken broth. My only difficulty has been trying to get all my Protein in. I'm sipping Isopure Protein all day but it's still tough to get in all 60 grams.

I really can't complain about anything because my pain has been very minimal, and I am eternally thankful for that.

@onereallybigbird. That's awesome news. Get some unflavoured Protein powder and add some to creamed Soup and yogurt, even sugar free pudding. It helps get the Protein in. If too thick at milk to thin down. People also add it to broth but I can't seem to get that to work it curdled :(

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
