ive actually seen higher weight losses...but i know i wont lose anywhere close to that amt every week. My starting weight was 268lbs and I'm 5'9". My weight on thursday (one week post op ) was 247lbs. I only wanna weigh once per week. My surgery was on May 23rd. On my app I cannot see profile pics so I cannot return the compliment wholeheartedly but I'm sure you look good too..thanks for the compliment. My goal weight is 165

I am 4 days post op and am so confused on what to "eat". I have been drinking ensure Protein drinks' date=' that are a Meal Replacement, not just Protein. I am not having any issues with drinking. I actually just drank a whole 14 oz bottle and as I was reading through my literature I am only supposed to drink 2 oz. Even if I drink 2 oz, 6 times per day, I will only get about 20 grams of protein in. I have not been full yet on anything and am drinking about 80 oz of Water per day. Any advise would be appreciated.[/quote']

I am drinking 12 oz of Protein shakes at 11 days post op. my Dr said no ensure!!! You need a low cal, low carb, low sugar protein that has about 20 grams of protein. I drink pure protein (Walmart )

23 Grams protein and sunkist liquid Protein that has 25 G protein

        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
