I am 5'2. Pre surgery I was 249.5, after pre op on the day of surgery I weighed 236.9, almost 4 mo post op I am now 196.2

I am 50lbs down and experience the same. My friends and family are always comment ing but many of my coworkers just kinda look at me. I think some ppl don't want to offend and play it safe by not saying anything. Yesterday me and a coworker was at the microwave at the same time and as we mentioned how good our food smelled and as I talked about how I am trying hard to eat healthy she said "you have lost weight" . I think I opened the door talking about healthy eating blah blah.

You rock, congratulations on kicking 100.

You rock!!

Congratulations on your success, you rock!!

I can't swollen pills. Pre vsg I use to grind my iron pill and take it with a sweet juice to mask the taste. I need to find a liquid, gummy or not nasty chewable iron pill to rid my anima. Any suggestions??

I saw a commercial for isopure drinks which have 0carbs and 40g of protein but I can only find the drink on Amazon. Amazon don't sell singles, not inclined to spend 50 bucks on a drink if I haven't tried it out. Has anyone tried this drink and where do you buy it from?

To all of you that said it's disgusting.... You are so RIGHT!!!! I bought 1 of each flavor. Each one taste like poison. It was so gross I thought it was expired. Great amount of protein per serving but I can't take the taste [emoji12]

Yayyy 1 week down, feeling lighter and great already. Still on the liquid diet but starting to have tummy cramps here and there. I am not even drinking when the cramps occur, wondering if it's just excess gas or if I should be concerned since the pain is not to bad. Any advice??

Great to hear, it made me think I did something wrong. Congratulations!!

No appetite and having a hard time getting the required liquid in. I suppose to get in 64oz and takes me a full 24hrs to just barely get that in. Anyone else experiencing this?

I am on day 13 of my 14 day pre op liquid diet and to date has lost 17 lbs

I realized all dr. Have different pre op procedures. I am on day 12 of my 14 day pre op liquid only diet. I have never craved as much as I have this week. Hanging in there, surgery Monday.

I am on day 7 of my pre op liquid diet and messed up today by having a small plate of greens. It's a veggie and was cooked with chicken broth but I feel like I made a big mistake. I am going to be honest with my dr, mentally reset, and pray for the best. Any suggestions or have anyone else experienced such?

Congrats!! Did you experience any gas pain after surgery? If so was it painful?

This was very helpful [emoji846]

Date got pushed back to the 24th. I was bummed but super excited. Pushing through the liquid diet

Got my surgery date!! I start my liquid pre-op diet on Monday. I thought I could eat lean meats and veggies but I am being told protein liquid by my nurse. Any advice , these 2weeks are going to be difficult.

April 10th is my date. Excited and nervous. I keep reading about the expected gas pain which sounds painful [emoji51]

My date is April 10. Excited and nervous at the same time
