Have you tried Unjury or nectar? I really like the chocolate unjury, I'm lucky and my hospitals pharmacy carries it, you can also order online

I ordered some last week! You know the name unjury just doesn't scream (I am yummy..consume me), but I read many good things about it so I finally just went ahead and ordered 2 sample packs. Hopefully they will be in this week.

Down 15.5lbs. Lost exactly 1lb from last Monday to this Monday. I know this is normal and my doc is very pleased with my progress, so I'm not going to let the scale demons win this one. It looks like several of us are in the 15-18lb range.

I'm going to keep on keeping on, make a push to get in my protein/fluids, start weights now that I'm cleared, and follow my doc's guidelines to eat 6-8 times a day.

I have one more week of soft and then I start regular food. Curious how that's going to pan out!

Down 20 lbs since surgery and 62 lbs down from the beginning of my journey in July. Super excited to see how this all pans out... I feel like I'm a slow loser, but according to this post, it seems like I'm right on track with everyone else.

I should add that I am happy with my progress thus far even though the scale and me are not getting along right now.

I'm down 50 total since august, 17 of that since surgery.

I am down about 33 lbs. My diet changed today to include regular foods as tolerated. My soft diet included chicken and tuna so I pushed that to turkey and well ground beef and even pork. So far I hadn't consumed anything that I wasn't already eating. I think my cravings for sodas has increased, however I am better tolerating being around normal folks while they are eating. I really wish I could go to the restroom (probably drop some weight if I weren't so stopped up). TMI? Hesitant to take something that isn't gentle. I don't know exactly how much Protein and oz I am getting. I just eat low/no carb and highest protein I can. Doc probably wouldn't like that but I hate all shakes. I have yet to try Unjury, but my package of it came today so we'll see.

I have been on a stall for over 2 weeks now. I have only lost 27 lbs and that was lost in the first week and a half. Thinking this isn't going to work

So frustrating not seeing the scale move for 2weeks. I know I know don't watch the scale, but its frustrating. I'm only down 18lbs and scale only fluctuates up 2lbs and them back down the 2lbs. I have 60-65 more lbs to loose.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
