Hang in just the start of the journey! Had my sleeve surgery 3/19 so I’m on the full liquid. Doing premier shakes also but I love them but then again I loved army chow and airplane food. I was luck cause stuff my hospital sells health wise product are awesome. Just keep the faith I know I finding now fighting hunger thoughts of having pizza or whatever since ever freaking tv commercial is food! But hats off to all who have taken the leap!

LOL I get it. I feel so well that I almost forgot and almost took a bite of pizza tonight. Didn’t, thank goodness. Hang in there!!

Pretty darned sick of watered down Gatorade (surgeon instructions) and premier shakes, but I’ll take it.

Powerade Zero is what my docs recommend and you can have as much as you want by itself..

Watered down gatorade sounds bad, but I don't like gatorade in the first place. I found that hot herb tea went down really well for me. My first week I wasn't hungry so the food commercials and food network didn't bother me, but now, after 2 months, I am really craving a big slice of pizza!

I just heard about a Pizza Crust made from cauliflower. Have you heard of that or tried?

Hi just checking in as well. I got sleeved on 03/19 as well. I am 14 lbs down. My diet consists of diluted gatorade, unsalted beef broth, cranberry juice and crystal lite in Water. I have head hunger, hard to explain. I feel a lot better then I did last week, just some minor abdominal pain. I drove for the first time today also.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
