Weighed this morning and I'm down 32lbs total and 19 lbs since surgery. Not sure if this is average but loosing 3/4 of a pound a day since surgery is good to me!!

Sounds good to me! I am at 34 pounds loss and I am 5 weeks out.

Thanks for the ideas. I do have the unflavored Protein powder. I have added it to a few things I think it's a mental thing, but I have a difficult time drinking it. I saw the G3, and I wondered if it were too many carbs. I will give it a try. As far as shakes, I am trying to finish the GNC lean shakes that I have before purchasing more. I am sick of them, due to the sweetness.

I am sure I will get there! It just may take some time.

.

To many carbs for one sitting , but i spread mine over the entire work day, it is 2 servings

I'm three weeks out tomorrow. food goes down great - no trouble at all except one time when I ate Pop chips like an idiot. Won't be doing that ever again. I'm on regular food. My issue is liquids. I drank tons of Water and Protein shakes and Crystal Light before surgery, and now the only liquid that goes down without nausea is tea. I'm really disappointed that the shakes are making me nauseous. I also struggle when I take my meds. Anyone else having issues with liquids and not food?

      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.
