How many shakes and/or Water should we get in? Is a 20oz Water too much in 45-60 minutes or. 12oz shake in that time? I know liquid is important but I don't want to push. I am 11 days post op. thanks!

you should get 2 ounces per hour which makes 8 ounces. if you do Protein shake same thing and that counts as your Fluid intake as well

I do 1 shake 11 oz with in 60 minutes to 1 1/2 hrs. I'm comfortable with that. Some days I can't do it it takes me longer and sometimes quicker no pain all good I'm 13 days out

Thanks so much. It is hard to figure out all the new "normals ". Glad to have community to turn to. I can sip Water and realize by end of show bottle is gone. Just want to stay hydrated. I hear dehydration is quite yucky.

@littlepieface - My doctor recommended Milk of Magnesia which is the mildest way of getting things moving. It worked for me but truth be told I don't think there is much to move since I am on Clear Liquids.< /p>

I have my first appointment with my surgeon since my surgery tomorrow! I hope that they say that everything is good. When I was in the hospital last week the doctors allowed me to start puréed foods early. I should have started tomorrow. I got approval from one of the other doctors since my surgeon was out of town. That doctor works with her, but I just hope that didn't mess anything up! I did tell her when she checked up with my last Monday when I was still in the hospital but who know. I hope I can start soft food soon!

      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
