Be careful of drink mix like mio and others. One of the main ingredients is propylene glycol which is antifreeze. I used to drink mio before the surgery and started having palpitations really bad and my cardialogist told me to stop drinking them and look at the ingredients in the liquid mixes.

Sometimes we have to reset our sleeves. What I mean by that is start your diet over. Start with liquid 3 weeks. I did I'm losing again. I have increased my protein intake. No carbs. Nothing with more than 9grams of sugar. I'm post OP 10 months I didn't lose anything for over 3 months until I just went back to the beginning. I was losing inches not pounds though. Since then I have lost another 15 lbs. You can do it. Stay away from the cokes even diet. Stick to your water and protein shakes. In 70 lbs down. I thought it was a magic cure and the lbs would melt off but reality hit me. The surgery is a tool and you have to read and follow the instructions in order to use it correctly. Hope this helps. Keep your head up you can do it. Sent from my SM-G965U using BariatricPal mobile app

Just be ready for pure hell. I had mine in dec 2017. I still have problems with mine. I was nauseated and vomiting all the time. You will be on your liquid. The smell of certain foods make me vomit. Your food taste totally different. I felt and still do hungry all the time. I was told to increase my protein intake. My hair is falling out but the plus side I have lost 70 lbs. So it's doing what its supposed to do. My suggestion is to get some 30cc cups or 1/4 measuring cups. If you can fill 2 of them that's your meal. Try lil high protein snacks throughout the day. High protein shes with less than 9 grams of sugar I like muscle milk. Adkins shakes are good too. Do not try to rush it you can stretch your stomach back out. I do the gummies vitamins. I ended up in the hospital several times. It's hard to drink 64 ounces in a day especially when you are limited on 4 oz.. oh no drinking while you eat you either drink or eat your protein. good luck I dont know if I would do it again. When I go out to eat I have my husband order and I eat off his plate. If your a salad and or bread lover that's done it's just wasted space in your stomach and bread is carbs you dont need and heavy in your stomach. My husband is getting the bypass.
