For me the liquid diet was not bad and I lost weight on it! Found a good tasting protein drink and I am still using it. My surgery went well they say. I have had very little pain and have had no nausea.

What protein drink do you like?


I'm 10 weeks out of surgery. I've lost 34 lbs and I've stopped losing. I'm so frustrated. I try and drink a lot of water but find it difficult. I try and get 60 grams of protein in. I eat about 700 to 900 calories a day.
I've started exercising but not consistently.
Anyone else out there not losing?


I'm 61 and was sleeved on 2/23/17. Including liver reduction diet to now, I'm down 40 lbs. Since surgery weight loss has been slower than I wanted but so far, I'm being patient. My doctor has me on only 600 calories...some days I might go over by as much as 100 and other days, I struggle to hit 600. I've never been one to exercise and that didn't change, which I'm sure is part of the problem.

Clothes have been an issue. I went from wearing stuff that was too tight to wearing a size smaller in pants. I purchased 2 new, smaller size tops...same brand and size, without trying them on. When I got home, one was perfect and one was too tight. The point is, you just can't tell. As long as you know you are losing and feel good, that's all that matters.

I am waiting on insurance approval and then date. I am 60 with b-day of 5/15. I have done changes of no smoking and I am at one week if no caffeine. Spoke with my insurance and they have assured me I should have no problem with the approval. Really excited for my next phase
