I'm new to this. I decided to have this surgery to help me loose weight and prevent high risk heart disease that runs in my family. My starting weight was 232.

I need some help with foods and Protein.currently I'm on liquids. But im still experiencing stomach cramps and nausea. My biggest fear is to dehydrate. Would some one please help me I need lis of support I have no clue if I'm doing the right thing.

Sometimes I wondered why I had this surgery

Hi Lambshop, you'll be fine. AND, you've come to the right place. Those that have had the surgery before you will assist.

I'm going to follow & take notes, for I'll need the support in August.

You had this surgery to create a better you. Be encouraged!

thank you so much. It was rough coming out of surgery had chest pain and didn't wake up fully till the next day.

Now I just need to figure out what I can eat. I have lots of food allergies so this is going to be challenging.

I am a July 8th'er also. I am doing well keeping liquids down, but I am afraid that I am not drinking enough. I am having 1/2 cup of broth and SF Jello, but still do not think I am taking in enough liquids. My doctor stressed Protein Shakes, but I have yet to find one that I can tolerate at this time. I am going to try the G2. Mornings are my toughest time. I feel the worse; not sure if it is because my stomach is empty, dehydrated, but it takes me a few hours to get myself going. Feeling pretty good otherwise.

My neighbor brought me tofu unflavor so what I have done this morning was get some fresh peaches peel the skin and put the recommended amount of tofu on a blender about 2 peaches one halve of banana a little fresh orange juice ice and splenda to taste and blend. the tofu doesn't have a flavor and I tolerated like a champ.

Felt full

That sounds good! Never thought of tofu. About how much tofu did you use?

What the package instructions say I cut mine in 8 pieces so I use one piece every time
