I start mine next week so am also keen on any tips and think it will be a challenging two weeks for myself.

Good luck to you!!

Hang in there. The first 4 days are the worst, but it gets so much easier after that. Keep plugging away and take it day by day.

Thank you so much and it is hard ha ha but I keep telling myself nothing will taste as good as feeling healthy and being skinny feels.

I'm on day 6 of 14. It is still tough but getting through it.
Water...drink Water when you find yourself having a headache.
Warm items help me feel more satisfied. Soups and high Protein hot chocolate are my favorites.
Add ice in a blender with your shakes...it gives them a little bulk and there are small bits of ice you can chew!
I add benefiber to one or two of my shakes each day to help keep things moving.
I get up every 2 hours (sometimes less) to use the bathroom. I've lost about 7lbs since I started and I'm sure a lot of that is water!
I'm trying a new recipe every day for shakes and soups. So while I'm having 2 chocolate Premier Protein shakes a day, the third one is usually something different. (My plan is 3 shakes and 3 protein liquid foods per day).
I keep trying different yogurts but so far haven't found one I like.
I keep telling myself better liver better surgery. I repeat that every time I see a food commercial or someone offers me something and I have to resist.

      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! 😞
