Hi, guys I had my vsg on 9/18/17. I had difficulty with fluid intake so I was in the hospital 4 days. I’m home now and I’m doing much better with fluids, but I can only intake water and some vitamin water. The cream soups are too salty with dilution and the sweet shakes are too sweet. I don’t want either and I have had to force myself to take in 1/2 a cup a day of protein from Unjury. I know it is no where near my goal. I have my first post op appointment on Monday 10/2/17 and was wondering if I just focused on getting in water until then will I be fine. I’m a little frustrated and the pain is horrendous if I attempt to do anything but lay on my back. Any positive input or suggestions is badly needed. Thank you all and congratulations on your successes.

Thank you. I’m heading to my parents house. The pain has become so much. Still pushing liquids. Doing anything makes me weak so quickly. I’m still pushing!!

Thank you for the suggestion.

I’m not sure. I’m about to look it up because I spent almost $200 on their products.

6 days post op... and it’s hell. I don’t want shakes or soup, just water. I ordered all these Unjury products and can’t stand the taste. 12 pounds down in 6 days but I know I can’t live off water and popsicles. Trying to stay strong.

Yes I’m focusing on the fluid intake process. It’s more of the taste I’m disgusted by. Just hoping my unflavored protein gets here quick. I’m very excited about getting to the puréed phase.

I ordered the flavored ones from Unjury because I didn’t realize how quick I would be over the taste. So I ordered the unflavored today, so I can get the protein in. I tried jello on my pre op and that really helped. I will make more when I feel up to it, and I have some sugar free tropical popsicles to eat.

Thank you so much. She gave me liquid pain meds, but they just make me sleepy. It really does nothing for the pain. I will try some chicken broth but I’m concerned with not getting enough protein in. It’s literally making me gag.
