From what my friend says about dumping, that sounds about right. I have a liquid diet for 22 days, they baby food style for 2 weeks, then soft foods another 2 weeks before "real" food...and I'm only 14 days out lol Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

The only bad i felt was when i was kicking the pain pills. My wife was angry at me saying i was being rude but i had to kick them since i had issues in the past. So far other than that, I'm happy as a clam and no one cab figure out how i can cook full blown meals for everyone and not feel the need to eat. I just don't and i am loving the new life i have been given. I want the most of this second chance and no taco or lasagna is going to derail it Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Thanks for the reply..it helps Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Lots of doctors will tell you Protein shakes are garbage due to the sheer over processing to get the end result. Also, on most labels the fda is never involved and the claims on the lable haven't been tested outside the company. So make sure you do your homework Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

None...no one hits goals without changing things up when we stall. I had to lose 30 for my surgery so i quit drinking, dropped sugar, dropped all unnecessary carbs. 20g of carbs per shake is insane and that's your problem right there. Unless you're walking/running 4 miles a day and in the gym 2 hours a day, how can you burn that much off from liquids? I'd kill the shake, switch to sugar free carnivore if you have it in your area. (GNC) Stick to lean Protein, chicken, ground sirloin, eggs, turkey, cheese and walk. Just go out and walk, put your ear buds in and go. You'll shed the weight, hope this isn't too late Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

I read, if you're in the soft food stage you can make you Protein shake into pudding consistency and eat it instead of trying to drink it. Haven't gotten to that with me yet, since I'm still on liquids and Protein shakes Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

They had us buy all of our shakes and Vitamins a week before. It's old already lol Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Cool, I'm 10 days out today walked my first mile this morning and feel better. My craving is for spicy wings for some weird reason lol. No I'm not going to dive on that...but dang. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Good luck and happy new life! Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App

Yeah, that liquid diet is a trip. I'm having trouble meeting Protein and liquid intake they want in one day. I'm ready for mushy foods or something other than boring clear and Protein shake but i know healing takes a while. Congrats on your surgery! Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App
