I'm one week out from surgery and I'm so ready to eat again, I can't hardly stand it...last night I almost blended up a piece of the homemade pizza I made for my husband last night! The protein shakes are starting to repulse me, soups too. How will I survive?

Yea, that's a good idea, but it seriously might make me want the food more than I already do right now...what I would give for a turkey and cheese roll-up! Haha, these next couple months are going to be very difficult!

There is a butter flavor you can get in the extract section at the grocery store (I saw it used for a cinnamon roll flavored Protein shake).

I too, was sleeved on the 29th. I feel great, up and walking a lot, cleared to drive even! Only taking childrens Tylenol for pain. I drink 2 protein shakes a day, spread out of course, and eat strained soup with unflavored protein mixed in. Drinking at least 64oz water/flavored water a day. I've lost 14lbs since surgery!

Jay Robb is very suttle in it's flavors and you can mix it well(blends well with just a blender bottle) with sugar free puddings and flavorings. I get it at Whole Foods, but you can rder it online too. The Unury brand isn't bad either.

I'm 9 days into my 2week liquid diet. I've found that I prefer the taste and texture of Jay Robb protein(I found it at whole foods, but you can order it online too). I like to mix PB2 with the chocolate and I like to mix in sugar free pudding flavors like banana(with the chocolate) or pistaschio(with the vanilla)! I also add extract flavors for a few different tastes, like Almond Joy and Root Beer float(without adding any soda)! I do tolerate the unjury unflavored with broth. So ready to have my surgury so I don't feel hungry all day every day! Haha, I know a lot of it is in my head, but if I don't keep myself busy I go crazy!

I'll be sleeved on the 29th! I'm so ready! I've been losing weight like crazy on this liquid diet, so it gives me a lot of hope that this surgery will do wonders to help me control my intake! Down 16lbs since starting liquids, 5 more days until I'm sleeved! Hoping to hit 20 lost before surgery!

I'm getting sleeved the 29th too!!! So excited to finally be at this point in the process, but very nervous about the pre-op diet! Trying to try out a bunch of shake recipes so I know what I'll like!

I'm supposed to have my surgery either the last well of July or the first well of August! I'll know more after I meet with my surgeon on June 24th. I'm 5'6". HW:265 CW:250 GW:140. Looking forward to keeping up with you all!
