Oh my I really hate to come to this page and be negative in anyway but I am feeling alot of anxiety this morn trying to figure out how I will make it through the next 3 weeks if I have to eat this pre-op food. I am not a picky kind of eater but this morn I am trying to eat apple & cinnamon oatmeal and kiwi-strawberry drink. I can barely get either past my nose and then the texture has made me gag twice. The drink is really thick. I just keep thinking I am paying $94 a week for food that I feel I can't even compare to actual food. I'm so stressed now ????

What about making it into a smoothie? Worth a shot I suppose. Good luck! You can do this!

Depends on your Dr. My 1st surgeon was liquid diet and 1 low fat, low carb meal/day.

My current surgeon is all liquid, low fat, low carb and max 1000cal/day

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
