Wow only in the 3’s? How many calories are in your Protein Shakes? Well also I can eat a little meat and vegetables. I was feeling light headed day 1 day 2 was a little better, today is day 3 and I don’t wake up starving so that’s a good thing. I lost 3lbs already so I’m happy about that.

They want me to follow this

AM-Protein Shake-160calories

Lunch- Broth-5calories

Lunch-protein bar-200calories

Snack- sugar free jello-5 calories

Dinner-Broth-5calories

my daily Protein intake is 59

Yes everything is for a reason and you got this! Surprisingly I am not that hungry today which is weird because by this time yesterday I was starving. Now I’m just like ehh I’ll have a shake later not really in the mood to eat.

Glas to hear it is going better for you. Day 4 for me and I m so ready to move on to the next phase-surgery & recovery. When we get to the regulr diet fter this it will seem like a big deal insread of undoable. Good luck to you!

Yes not too bad today I’m not even hungry. I had two Protein Shakes and a sugar free popsicle. I’ll have a piece of salmon or chicken breast later but really I’m not in the mood to eat. It does get easier I can see that.

Hello, new here. I was scheduled for February 18th for surgery, but due to no power and Water in Houston it was canceled. I was on my 4th day of pre-op liquid diet, but stopped b/c of the cancellation and all the things going on right now. I’m going to start back on it tomorrow so I can be prepared when they reschedule my surgery. By day 3 I was okay, but the first two days were hard. It would be nice to lose 10-20 lbs before surgery. We got this, is just temporary.

The same thing happened to me but it was Covid spike. Postponed for 9 weeks. I gained weight because of the timing and holidays/ I have my surgery on 2/23...looking forward to it!! Good luck to you!

I am on day 4 of 7 for liquid diet. Surgery is on 2/24. Down 5 more lbs. Staying on track and accountable. Trying to keep busy. So far so good. Day 7 which is Clear Liquids will be the hardest. I work that day so hope that will help distract 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
