  1. I've been sleeved over 2 years and I woke up from surgery hungry. Lost over 50lbs but gaining now. I'm a grazer. Never been able to just eat 3 meals and 2 snacks. Sent from my LG-H918 using BariatricPal mobile app

    pre-surgery jitters

    Surgery probably makes most people nervous. It's a big step in a good direction for your health but you need to be sure because there is no turning back. I had regret but it did not last. Now I'm haph i did it. My aunt went from band to sleeve and loves it.
  3. There are plenty out there. My surgeon sells his own brand of shakes and i was not a fan of the price or taste. I ordered syntrax nectars and matrix they have a guarantee. If you dont like it they will refund you. I liked some flavors prior to surgery but not after. I also use genepro clear protein with no flavor from amazon. There is something out there comparable to what your surgeon pushes im sure. Good luck!

    Day 3

    I cheated on my liquid diet the girst 7 days. I ate out but still had my protein shakes. I lost about 12 lbs pre op. I was completely committed to the liquids on the last 3 days before surgery. I had no issues. Syntrax nectars was the protein i used. I mixed them with water and they taste good. They have lemon and tea flavors as well as the standard chocolate and vanilla flavors. After surgery i did not like them for about a month.
  8. Try a bite. Put it on your tongue and you will know if you can proceed. Some people can not take sweets so early and will have major problems. The biggest problem with sweets is that if you can tolerate them you are in a dangerous position and can sabotage your weightloss efforts. Some protein powders can be used to make mug cakes. Try that for a better dessert option.
