Agree, I am so sick and tired of sweet, I got chicken Soup flavored Protein Powder and now add it to all Soups. It tastes OK.

Can anyone tell me a good threshold for sugar and fat grams? I don't want dumping syndrome but I want to add things to my shakes.< /p>

My dr suggests the 20:10:10 rule...

At least 20grams of Protein

Less than 10grams of sugar

Less than 10grans of fat.....

Hope this helps

Ok I'm still in the hospital. O go home tomorrow. What I have noticed is the midnight crew is extremely lazy. They don't answer any of my request. I'm going to let my Dr, know tomorrow because this is ridiculous. My ac is not working I can't even get a fresh/cold cup of Water. Yet they tell me to get my fluids in. S,dh????

On the losers bench! YAY! I've had a miserable night but its almost over. Today is Water very slowly and with God's blessing some broth tonight. My phone is my entertainment because I will *not* pay $10 a day for the t.v. I hope you end-of-the-month losers are doing ok too.

Two weeks out and my hips and knees aren't killing me! I can walk without crying. Granted I haven't had to work a full day yet but I've done a lot of walking and no pain !!

Today I had a Laughing Cow cheese wedge and it was sooo good. Can't have crackers yet so I ate it off of the wrapper. Popsicles have also helped with the urge of wanting crunchy food. I need to get more exercise in though.

Make sure you read the nutritional value on those because my nutritionist told me those are actually bad. That's she prefers for me to just eat regular just way less of it because of the Ingredients.

Good luck tomorrow. And welcome. Nothing really to b nervous about. Everyone is different but I have had no pain, I had my surgery on the 6th and the only real pain I had was from my Iv, the three times they poked me and when they would give me medicine in it, it would burn so bad I would grab my arm. But other than that nothing. Let us know how u r doing. Good luck again!!

      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.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
