I hope you find someone:) I just wanted to say good luck. I was sleeved by Dr Kelly on 3/9 and it has been great from day 1. I never had pain, nausea, haven't been immune to the stalls but I have lost 33 lbs so far!

Thanks DDFinn, congrats on the weight loss! I'm hoping mine comes off quickly too
:)

sam74, I see you're from NC too! Maybe we will run into each other between the hospital and the Lucerna. Good luck!

sherlee, I hope so. Yep, I started it last Tuesday. I am staying hungry all the time but I've lost 7 lbs. V-8 juice is my new BFF this week and I made a puree (gerber stage 1 consistency) that was pretty dang good- dice 1 sm vidalia onion, stir in hot pan to get sweatin', add 2 chopped squash, black pepper, Water, & a little Swanson chicken broth packet. Cook til tender and puree the heck out of it-enough for 2-3 meals. What have you tried out so far?

How is the pre op going? Any new recipes? A smoothie King Just opened up down the street do I have been doing a gladiator drink everyday for lunch which is 45 g Protein and 2g carb. I just got my necktie sample yesterday so I will start to try them. I have been taking it one meal at a time, can't think about dinner or how much longer when it if only Breakfast. The time is getting close very fast.

Thanks, It's going good, I'm down 11.4lbs. I slightly cheated today though. I had a kids 4pc grilled chicken nugget from Chick-fil-a which are 80 cal, 1 fat gram (plus an applesauce pouch & apple juice on my preop list). I don't show any smoothie Kings near me, their smoothies looks good online and 45grams are a plus! My mama bought me a Ninja 1200 for mother's day so I'm sure I'll be coming up with something this week :). I'm thinking mashed califlower w/ a little chicken broth or skim milk would be good. I made a 8oz skim milk w/ 2 scoops of chocolate powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury for Breakfast which is 40grams. I tried the vanilla but blah, possibly since I added unsweetened frozen raspberries, very gritty. The Unjury chicken Soup mixed with Swanson flavor boost & warm Water is ok but the foam on top is umm...unappetizing though palatable. What's a necktie sample?

I know I'm so excited it's almost here! My daughter gave me her souvie request list already lol. She broke her foot at school Thursday so I'm gonna be getting my exercise pushing her around until then. Are you ready?!

I'm arriving the 23rd for a 24th surgery with Dr. Kelly. I hope to meet you all. You'll recognize me, I'm the heavyset guy.

Ok, Reese and Crystal what have you been eating? I panicked today because I had been doing Protein Shakes and throwing fresh fruit in them with skim milk and now I am not sure that is allowed. My hubby made me homemade chicken broth for dinner that I am going to eat and I ate yogurt and creamy Tomato Soup for lunch but I just hope that I interpreted the pre op directions correctly. I need a piece of mind because I really want my liver in good condition for surgery. I still have 8 days to get it right.

sherlee, I had a Protein shake for Breakfast, a few spoons of fat free refried Beans for lunch, and wonton broth from the hibatchi restaurant for supper. I'm probably going to have a Fiber one key lime yogurt for snack. I haven't tried it yet, but I bought a butternut squash healthy choice Soup for lunch tomorrow. It looked pureed on the picture. I'm seriously tempted to buy some fruit baby food.

tsleeve & reese, good luck to both of ya'll and maybe I'll see you there.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

      Lost my Pup last month and struggled really hard for that first month. Stopped tracking intake and slid into old habits here and there. Also quit working out. Can't walk in the neighborhood because of all of the memories we shared. Losing my Pup is the most heartbreaking thing I've ever been through. My Pup was my world 💔
      Talked to my doc during my one year followup and they were not worried about my current status. They know, and I know, that I will get back on track.
