Hang in there!! Remember your body just got its butt whipped and is in shock. Just follow the plan laid out by your med team, and the losing will come.

I didn't read through all seven pages, but they make Protein crackers now. The problem is most have seeds. http://www.easylowcarbdesserts.com/low-carb-crackers/ You can make your own "cheese it" with cheddar cheese slices. If it's crunch you're looking for there are alternatives. But at the end of the day, if you can't find what the plan allows, ask your surgical team. They'll be able to point you in the right directions.

Fluids is NOT going down well.
SalOdyssey replied to LACRACRA2's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Try different temps too. I found my allowed Soups to go down easier, than cold Water. -
The bolded is true for about 85% of the reason why surgeons put you on a pre-op diet, along with adjusting to the new lifestyle after surgery. If the liver is enlarged the surgeon may not be able to move it enough out of the way to operate in a safe manner and could abort the procedure.

Tommy, make sure you're tracking food and water intake. You're not the only male doing this, although sometimes it feels like it. Stay Strong!! -

Good Friday all!! I am on the other side! Had surgery 7-6-16. All went well. Slept most of the day on 7-6. Very groggy. Liquid intake is improving daily. Still not at goal, but getting better. Just going to rest and focus on my liquid intake. Congrats to those who've been sleeved and those getting ready to be sleeved.- 964 replies
