You will be fine - drink drink drink that is what I did. Try to keep busy doing something so you don’t think about food.

I'm looking to start weight lifting to build muscle and cut down on skin sagginess. No idea where to start though. I'd like to work the following muscle groups, likely 2-3x weekly? Biceps, Triceps, Rhomboids, Abs, Pecs, Thighs and Calves. I have small weights (think 1-2 pounds) and a bungee type system but I'd be willing to invest in joining a gym or some free weights, I just don't know what kind of plan to follow to do this right. I currently walk 2+ miles about 3-4 times a week and do barre 2x a week.

Sorry, I missed that in your first post.

Great results - congrats

Great work! Turkey day seemed to coincide with starting real fat loss for me so I lost 6 pounds over the long weekend.

Congratulations 💚

It is more important to get your fluids than your protein at this point. Try a different brand of shake. You can also get fairlife milk from grocery store and drink it instead of shakes if you just can’t tolerate them. I had no problem with the premier protein shakes pre op. Had my revision to rny last Friday and I am not able to keep premier protein down at all. I switched to syntrax and fairlife milk. Another thing is to make sure you are just slowly sipping your shakes. Like one ounce in 15 minutes or so. Go too fast and they will come back up due to lack of anywhere to go once your pouch is full. Hang in there and keep us posted.

Awesome! The longer you can keep this mindset during the WLM, the better in my honest opinion. I didn't want to dink around with the scenic tour of weight loss. Been there, done that, never got to goal that way.

@InterceptorNYC That tomato soup sounds delicious!

I think you may be right. I am double checking. I may have misunderstood Clear VS Sugar -free ,low fat full liquid diet. Thanks. I would really like to have insure protein shakes first day home. Glad that I'm learning this now. 6 days to go. lol
