I just discovered Ocean Spray Diet 5 ! I like the Cran-Blackberry. 5 calories, 1 gm sugar. Sweetened with sucralose. Lots of flavors. Didn’t care for the cran-mango though...

I just might try some, thank you Fluffy Grandma for the tip. I have been on a basically liquid with a few purees almost from the beginning because of my stricture and ulcerations, and drinking gets boring after 4.5 months, someday things will be better , I will go back to oral feeding instead of my TPN, I still can have a little by mouth and usually fluids. Thanks again.

Vitamin Water zero and Powerade zero, as life savers to break up different flavors!

Also, try adding powdered PB to your shakes. Truly turns it into something amazing!

I use GMC lean chocolate and vanilla. Also premier shakes. You can add PB to any of them! I like the premade shakes! Makes life easier.

This may be bad advice...but I ate the oikos zero yogurt, sugar free Jello, sugar free popsicles, and fell in love with fat free cottage cheese! Weird, I know, but it tasted amazing and went down easy. Hang in there!!! I'm 2 weeks post OP...we will have real food eventually, just less of it! [emoji3]

      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? 🤷‍♀️
