Rainy,

I am sorry you are feeling bad but just hang in there. I couldn't handle the clear Protein either. I did clears for 10 days and after a point I just concentrated on getting my fluids in because no way was Isopure or any of the other clear Proteins I bought going down. It got much better after I advanced to full liquids and could do Protein shakes.

Best of luck and hang tough.

I think most people on here can relate to what you are going through. It seems like every sort of Protein makes me want to throw up.

So far...for the clear liquid diet....I handled the unflavored Protein powder. I made it with Jello. It didn't distort the taste whatsoever.

It saved my life.

The shots....unbearable. I know people say to mix them in stuff, but I couldn't do it.

Everyone is different. Everyone tolerates different things. Try the unflavored Protein Powder in with Jello or Crystal Light. It was the best thing for me.

Bullets are not a good form of Protein. They are made from collegan and you need whey Protein.< /strong>

Sunshine is right. You would be much better off to get some unflavored whey protein and mix it in anything you like such as sf gatoraide, poweraide, sf Hawaiian punch, crystal lite, etc.

If you have a GNC, they may have the syntrex nectar drinks for sale.

Is there anyone here? I was looking for a little advice here but looks like no one is around. I had the gasric sleeve done on Sept 24, been on liquids this whole time. Was doing ok till now. I'm wanting some real food. Just a bite. The Water and whey Protein isn't hitting the spot anymore. Was kind of hoping someone would be here to talk to about this. I guess not.

Why have you been on liquids all these days? Usually Clear Liquids are no more than 10, then you go on mushies. Also, you'll get more responses if you start a new thread with a new topic, I think. Good luck!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
