Someone else says this all the time and I think it is very helpful...this is a right of passage. :) So kinda...welcome to hell week baby! It WILL end and you will get better and better each day. And the liquid diet is from the debil. :)

Yep, it will pass and it is miserable in the mean time. Hang in there. Tey another brand of Protein Drink - maybe Isopure ready-made blue raspberry or punch, Bone Broth, etc.

@ love4040 please allow me to channel your body a moment:

"Hey love4040, it's me -your body. What do you think you're trying to pull? I thought we had a good thing going, I was in homeostasis, that's a fancy,word for balance, I was kinda happy there. Sure you were rather pudgy and all but I was getting q.s., that was medicalese for quantity sufficent Fluid, plenty of fluids and beaucoup calories and things were fine from my perspective. Then you haul me off to some hospital, take a nap and allow doctors to perform assault and battery on my sweet self. I'd call you a back-stabber except that is not where they stabbed me! Now in addition to allowing them to hurt me you are giving me a diet that would barely keep an earthworm alive! I suppose you want me to use your fat stores for enough energy? You do? Now I thought we were friends, we have hung around together for years and now you won't give me the calories I want, fine buddy you are! Okay okay I'll try burning your fat but it's not going to be a happy time for you. I plan to give you a Headache, mess up your bowel habits, maybe I'll give you loose stools maybe hard as bricks, haven't fully decided yet. I'll make you feel weak, I'll make you cranky, I may even send my good buddy appetite or his sister-in-law nausea to visit you. I'm not happy with this new you and I just want you to know this! Oh well maybe after a while I'll resign myself to all this, but right now? Meh I don't love you so much!" ,,,,,,......Your Body

As others have said, this too shall pass. I know that it sucks but it's only temporary. :-D Believe you me, even gruel is looking tasty right about now.

@Mattymatt I think maybe it's either you, @Apple203 or @Creekimp13 who call it a right of passage? Whomevs, best every way to view it. Cuz it is!

I think @Apple203 and @Creekimp13 probably coined the phrase. I also misspelled it. It should be a rite of passage. LOL!

I am having the same problem eating. Can’t stand the sweet shakes anymore ! Sipping Water all day. Any suggestions!

Try adding unflavored Protein to broth. Also, you can try using Fairlife Milk. It has 13 grams protein per 8 oz.

Seems that most go through the stage that they can't tolerate sweet anymore. Hang in there.

You could also use some of the RTD high protein broths. Savory things seem to settle a little better immediately post op

      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! 😞
