I feel that same way when I drink. It is weird. I feel it getting better though. 40 ounces is great in my opinion. I am finding it so hard to get in all my fluids. Like you I was hoping to see some weight loss but right now (6 days out) I feel and look no different. I refuse to step on a scale and get depressed so I haven't even attempted it. I am sad and wondering if I should have chose a bypass instead :( I just pray I did not do all this to lose no weight or just a small amount. I was praying it would help me loose at least 60 pounds over the next 6 months or so.

I know exactly how you feel, having doubts now that this was worth it. Thought I'd be feeling better but instead just feel fat and sick with this awful taste in my mouth from all this fake fruit flavored medicine and "food". My husband has been so supportive and I felt so prepared that Im trying not to fall apart. It's not a food thing either, not craving anything, just feel so awful between the headache and the pain. We have to believe that this is going to work, it works for everyone else it will work for us, you will lose that 60 pounds over the next 6 months and so will I. Those are reasonable realistic goals, we just have to turn this corner.

      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.
