Hi......... I know how you feel! ..... I'm on day 2 also! My dietician told me it was ok to had "flavorings" & it does help, some. She also said, if we can make it through day 2, it will get easier! (Wondering if she had to do this....lol) .... that is when our body starts to burn stored fat. Well....that part sounded good! ..... .......... Hope this helps! Sept. 25th is my surgery.

Ok what are y'all eating on your week before all liquid diet? !?!?

Probably not making my dietitian happy right now, I tried to keep it as healthy as possible but I did make my husband take me out for a last meal at Olive Garden so I could eat salad with some bread sticks (I limited myself to 2 although I wanted a lot more) and because I've been making better choices and my appetite is a lot different, I couldn't even come close to eating my whole entree.

gotcha - misunderstood! no olive garden then ha!

Here's what my days have been looking like.....

I had an all liquid diet for 2 weeks... into my second week....

start the day at 8 AM with a Protein Shake (Slimfast Advanced Protein), 10 AM sugar free Jello, 12 Protein shake, 2 PM broth (chicken), 4 pm protein shake, 5 pm sugar free Popsicle, 6pm protein shake, evening sugar free Popsicle and jello

During the day I drink Crystal Light and lots of water....

Mine is on the 27th. I started my Optifast shakes last week and continue on them until surgery. It's hard. I have cheated and had a couple bites of chicken and broccoli twice because my body felt drained and I had no energy. It seemed to help. Hopefully won't hurt me any.
What are you guys planning on doing after surgery for meals after all liquids are over? Puréed anything sounds awful. They said try to get in all my Proteins with food before supplementing shakes but a blended chicken breast sounds disgusting!!

Good luck guys!

I'm with you. The puree stage grosses me out. I'm not sure what I am going to eat. Good Luck on your surgery.

      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.
