My doctor said they were okay, I would check with the nut/ dietician to make sure because I am learning every doctor is different. It's better to be safe

Anyone on insulin and on the Protein Shakes has it affected your sugar levels. Do anyone know if its OK to blend up fruit in Protein shakes

I'm insulin dependent and I find it to lower my sugar level a bit plus the Protein Shakes keep me full longer compared to a Breakfast sandwich. I'm actually starting to enjoy them for breakfast. I mean I think they all pretty suck in taste but if it helps keep my tummy full then I'm drinking them, lol!

I was told to just stick with fruits that are low glycemic like berries.

Thanks for the help I emailed my endocrinologist and she told me to cut down on the amount of insulin I'm taking. I start my pre op diet today so nervous not ready to get out the bed I am really hoping I can do this for the next two weeks. When is/was your surgery?

So is it any easier now I just drank my first one for breakfast I need to go but a blender so I can add ice I heard sometimes making them thicker makes you feel fuller. I am actually satisfied with the way I feel after the first one I am now chewing a piece of sugar free gum LoL just need to chew. I will make sure to stay in this and not cheat I clearly understand why I have to do it b/c in the end I will be a healthier person for this. What is your date??

        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
