You Know You've Been On Liquid Protein Too Long, When:



Recommended Posts

I have been on liquids for 3 days now. Today I went to bed and said to everyone just wake me up

On nov. 13th ( surgery date) ! The worst part is making dinner for the husband and kids only to have to stare down another protien shake '-'

Ugh, I feel for you... Luckily in my case, my husband does a lot of the cooking anyway, so while I am on Protein, I stay out of kitchen when husband and kids eat.

Or drink a swig of Pickle Juice for the salt fix.

Yes... I've done it ( so ashamed)

nothin' wrong with swiggin' pickle juice!! Claussen is the best! heck, down here they freeze them in small cups and sell them for 25 cents...Pickle Pops!...Yes, that's incredibly redneck and yes, I'm incredibly ok with it! LOL

You've been drinking Liquid Protein too long when you smell the shake and gag... :huh: I'm SICK of shakes now even though I can eat a little, I still can't eat enough to stop drinking them.

You know you have been on a liquid diet when ur fiancé has his arm around you and you think to yourself if he would still marry you if you chopped off his arm, marinated it and BBQ it...

You made me laugh out loud. I needed that!

I hear ya! I cooked on the weekend for the whole week for my family. Fortunately, my husband is easy! So he just heated up what he wanted each night while I had even more Campbell's Tomato soup!

When you can't even get through 1/4 of an up&go...not because of ur small stomach, but because u just can't do it!!

BTW I'm on soft foods now but my morning Protein shake or up&go ritual is now intolerable!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
