At this stage just make sure you are getting in your liquids. The last thing you want to get is dehydrated. Get a kids sippy cup and just keep sipping all day long.

As for the Protein remember that a Protein shake counts for liquid and Protein. Just keep trying more and more things and you will find something that tastes good.

Trust me this phase passes and things will work out. I am sure you will soon have regret if you have joy already. It is normal to go through this and it will pass.

Hang in there!!!

I can't stand the smell of Protein Shakes. I tried Protein Shots thinking they would be easy to get my Protein in, but I was wrong they are worse, they r way to thick, not even freezing them worked may I say (yuck) I'm still struggling with protein shakes. But something's got to work.

I am eating cream of chicken Soup, strained, mixed with one scoop of unflavored Protein powder. It doesn't change the taste at all. You just have to heat the Soup up (but not too hot or the powder will clump) then whisk in the powder. It adds 25gr protein. I've done this with Tomato and roasted red pepper soup, too. You can also mix some choc Protein Powder into Jello sf choc pudding. That's another one that doesn't taste different, although it makes it a little less thick.

Terry.. I did the same thing... cream of Soup and just added powder to it. You have to try and get as much Protein as you can right now... your body needs it to heal!!!!

I still don't get in enough Protein or Water. shakes make me vomit...so nasty! I switched to Water w/minerals and have been able to choke down 3 bottles a day. It's hard being pregnant with RNY. Taste buds are off so bad.

Are u drinking Protein now or u just never did???

I am suppprt to but bec my tastebuds and my nose is so sensitive to the smell I cant get it down anymore. I tried many flavors and just got the unflavor today but it smell so bad. I am going to try it with the cream Soup. Before I was able to just chug the shake down in 5-6 swallows .You knw I cant do that now.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        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.

      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
