2 weeks out and tolerating everything...not getting particularly full either :(.

Maybe your Protein shake has too much sugar or carbs which don't agree with the sleeve? Which shake were you using?

I've used quite a few. Premier Protein chocolate and vanilla both make my stomach hurt. The other ones do that AND make me vomit. The GNC zero carb Protein powders make me vomit too, and so do the unjury protein powders. I've also tried whey protein and that makes my stomach burn also. I am pretty much out of options right now....ordered those Protein Shots (sunkist 46-48g protein)....waiting on those now. :(

I know you're completely right. Both of ya! I think it's just these Protein drinks and powders. I avoid them like the plague because of the vomiting fest afterwards....and the acid-burning stomach ache type pain in my lower abdomen (where you can feel a bowel movement coming on) almost immediately after drinking them. They simply are not working for me. And after I vomit even once I get this horrible empty/pulling feeling in my stomach for a day or two which feels a lot like hunger....minus the ravenous growls of death. I am staying on the diet...it was just those few lapses I mentioned above. I plan to stick to the diet strictly though' date=' no more tests and try outs etc. Sticking to full liquids for 3 more days. Than it's onto pureed foods. Meh, I'll blend me some chili when the time comes.

I guess it'll just be yogurt sweetened with xylitol now for me....3 more days. I'm NOT touching those Protein Drinks though...not in hell. I've got plenty of chicken Soup stored away....I'll make it up however I can. YUCK...hate that poison![/quote']

I hate the Protein shakes too!! Could NOT find one that I could tolerate. Before surgery I liked the Protein Bars and can have them in a couple of weeks. I hope I still like them.

I didn't feel full until I started dense Proteins and I have no issues of tolerance - with anything. I find I eat more fish as it sits better than most things

        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
