Hey I'm also 4 days post op. I don't know if you have a Home Goods near you but my husband found some great sugar free syrups for me to try. They are called "Jordan's Skinny Syrups." He bought pumpkin Spice and Peppermint Mocha. Tonight for dinner I had a Lean shake in chocolate with 1tbsp of the Peppermint Mocha. It was SO delicious. I am so excited to have the pumpkin Spice for thanksgiving!

Isopure is pretty good. Had the Blue Raspberry so far. I've heard that the grape is excellent. Twining's Purely Peppermint Decaf Tea is great at night. My nutritionist recommended throwing some crystal light into yogurt to give it some flavors. If you end up trying those syrups (which are about $4 each) you can even put them in SF pudding and give it a different flavor. I'm going to try it with the pumpkin spice and vanilla sf pudding.< /p>

I tried yogurt last night for the first time. It was heavenly, truly. I ate very little but it went down better than anything I have tried so far. I like the Dannon Light 'n Fit Yogurt. It's 12g Protein in 5.3oz and I usually am able to get two "meals" out of it.

Hang in there - I know what you mean about variety. I think about drinking Protein shakes for the next 10 days and I almost shudder. LOL - just gotta keep coming up with new tastes and I'll tell you - that Protein Shake I had tonight was EXCELLENT.

I use Lactaid Fat Free milk with the shakes too, btw.

Try vanilla Protein Powder, greek yogurt or lemon yogurt, milk or Water, and lemon extract. Blend and chill until foam is gone. Tastes like a lemon cupcake. Delicious!

Monyka - The Dannon Lite n Fit is sweetened with Splenda so it is safe. You will find sugar in all yogurt (because of the milk) but it is a nominal amount that should not hurt your stomach. It's a no sugar added yogurt and that's the one you want! I actually think that I am able to digest the yogurt better than anything else that I've tried. It's almost soothing in a way if that makes sense? The vanilla is a safe bet to start with - no seeds, no fruit. I do believe though that there are some other flavors that do not have the seeds and fruit in them as well.

      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
