Hi Everyone! I'm new. I had my sleeve done on Nov. 9th. I've finally got to the point where it doesn't hurt to drink bigger than a sip but am not getting all my Water in yet. I drink Water and Crystal Lite. I've always liked plain water just fine, but lately have been wishing there was something else. I'm picky; don't care for coffee or tea. I'm a recovering soda fiend. Lol I wish there was something I could drink that would take away the after tastes of all those vitamins! Does anyone have any ideas or am I just out of luck?

I like some of the Ocean Spray diet cranberry drinks, like diet cran-lemonade, diet cran-pomegranate, and diet cran-mango.

G2 and Powerade Zero were go-to's for me as well.

I bought a few Isopure drinks but I think they tasted horrible. I just had a coupon for the Atkins Lift Protein drinks (they're clear like a Gatorade) so I bought a 4 pack of the berry - they're also sweet but much better than the Isopures. 20 grams of Protein - the bottle is as big as a regular sized Water bottle.

If you're looking for something that tastes like a "meal" then try making homemade chicken broth in the crockpot. Super easy and tastes just like chicken Soup but strained. Look for the recipe on Allrecipes.com

I second the Atkins Lift drinks, they are pretty tasty! I do try to stick to Isopure though. The grape and blueberry aren't too bad to me.

I just slice up lemons, limes, cucumbers sometimes fresh pineapple and make infused Water. I make 64 oz every evening for the next day. Cucumber (mash it up a bit), mint and lemon is my current favorite. Pomegranate is pretty good (you do have to crush the seeds)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
