5DoxieMom 87 Posted March 6, 2012 Me too. I started my Liquid Protein diet today, uh, didn't do so well. I'm trying to find Protein Drinks that taste good. How long do you have to stay on liquids after? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

5DoxieMom 87 Posted March 6, 2012 jhansen71, where are you having your surgery? I have to be on liquid Protein for 4 weeks post op, yikes. This site is great, so much advice. One really cool thing is I met a gal who had her sleeve done a few weeks ago and she lives not too far from me AND she is a nurse at the surgery center where I'm going AND she will be there when I have my surgery. I feel like I will have a friend with me! I am having mine done in an outpatient surgery center. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

5DoxieMom 87 Posted March 6, 2012 Thanks for the well wishes. How many days did you have pain, nausea, fatigue? I'm really worried about how many days I'm going to be out of commission....I've got an extremely busy life with lots of critters and no one to help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
