I know what you mean possymoo, I have 2weeks to go as well on clear liquids and protein shakes only, but be strong we can do this! I've been freezing shakes, then blending them to make smoothies which has helped. I also checked with my nut today who is letting me add in some yogurt next Thursday? Check with yours to see if they have other ideas as well. Be strong, we got this!

Congratulations! I have very similar numbers, a bit higher at the start but about the same since surgery last week! This has given me even more inspiration to succeed! Thanks for sharing!

CONGRATULATIONS AND WELCOME TO THE LOSERS SIDE! We look forward to hearing about your progress during the journey! [emoji106]

I think the walking was the best thing for the process. Hope you feel better soon! Do you use a Fitbit? If so, friend me for activity challenges if you want. Im at vban@charter.net

I think your best advice will come from your doc. Good luck, and praying all is ok

How much fluids are you getting in? Protein?
-
Yup, it's normal. I was done last week and right after surgery was up 4 pounds. Happy to say I'm down 14 now. It will go quick, just walk , and get your sips and Protein in. Good luck!

Texas, (and all post sleevers) I have been drinking a protein water called Trimino. It has 7 grams of protein and helps keep me on the protein target along with the Protein Shakes.. You can find it on amazon. Just an FYI for another option

Driving after surgery
sleevinpops replied to beabetteru's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was cleared after: no meds for 24 hours & good range of motion without twisting. You will feel it trying to back up! -

can you have seltzer water on pre op diet?
sleevinpops replied to sally628's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I was told no. The longer you can go without, the easier it will be down the road too. Good luck, you got this! -
10 lbs in 7 days liquid on last 3 for me

Any suggestions on the CLEAR PROTEIN drinks?
sleevinpops replied to ShilohD's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Shilo, Walmart has a ton of different Water additives really cheap. Try a few before surgery to find what you like. Also, 0 sugars, 0calories, 0 carbs etc -
All sleeved! Thank you everyone!

Must follow everything to a "T" or I'm gaining weight
sleevinpops replied to Kelleylu's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It is very hard, but remember we all decided to take the journey, and none of us are the exact same so will take different paths and times to get to where we want to be. Sit back and enjoy the ride, but remember the most important thing is to keep yourself moving forward along the path! -

Pasta and bread were tough to give up for me too. I worked hard several months pre surgery to do it so I hopefully won't have to deal with the craving now, I found great alternatives- spiralizer to make vegetable pasta, you can even google cauliflower pizza crust or bread. Hopefully my taste haven't changed since surgery (1week ago today! [emoji1])

Love the Fitbit! Trying to get a group together for weekly challenges

Add me too please vban@charter.net

Excited For A Future When Full Body Pics Are Fun
sleevinpops replied to 2-Liter's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I know what both of you mean! I have felt and done the same thing! I wouldn't even put a picture on my LinkedIn or other SM profiles. I look forward to the before and after pics and the profile pics! -
You blink and it's here
sleevinpops replied to sleeveme17's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
When's the date? Good luck, and look forward to seeing you on the losers side! -
Absolutely! This seems to be the toughest part right now! I made some broth yesterday and the salt gave me a wicked craving for Doritos! I actually thought about just licking one just for the taste, but walked it off. I can't imagine two more weeks of this before I can start soft foods!
