can we refrain from blatant advertising do you think?

What's on my menu for today?

Um, I had oatmeal with sultanas and cinnamon for Breakfast

Just had a corned beef and pickle sandwich and a yogurt for lunch

chicken chow mein for dinner tonight.

I will NOT eat between meals today! I've been shocking lately. Probably because if I can eat a sandwich and a yogurt all within an hour I probably need some fill. Not sure.

Enough advertising already. There are hundreds of Protein products on the market.

First off, though, have you been banded, or are you pre-band? What type of liquid diet are you on? We need a bit more information about what your needs are before giving advice...

Oh, sorry, you were asking about liquids, stupid me. Here I am just tempting you with things, lol.

When I was on liquids, I blended up real food. I didnt live on Protein shakes (although I had them then as I wasnt eating a lot of anything). but I made really good hearty Soups full of Pasta, meat, lentils and veg and I blended those up, I'd blend yogurt and fruit together with some bran in it too for a smoothie with some fibre, and for some carbs for energy. I even blended up my Christmas dinner with extra chicken stock!

I found liquids really easy and honestly, I lost tons of weight in that time, eating well didnt stop me losing.

I take my coffee in the morning mix it with a vanilla Protein drink and add lots of sugar free french vanilla coffee mate.

I use same Protein and add some canned peaches and peach yogurt and creamer.

I'm wanting something warm so I will puree some Soup and add some plain protein mix to that. I'll let you know how it works.

Careful with the coffee mate! It gives me the trots if I have more than a couple of servings in a day. sugar free or regular versions both do this to me. ;)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
