Does anyone else use the app My Fitness Pal for tracking Protein and food? My nut suggested it yesterday and it's pretty cool. I'm getting more protein than I had thought. Here's a typical day on the full liquid diet: Light yoplait banana yogurt w vanilla protein powder(took 45 mins to eat) 4 oz Protein Shake (milk+unjury+carnation) 1/2 cup cream of chic Soup w Protein Powder 1/2 cup FF cottage cheese 1/2 cup cream of chic soup w protein powder DQ sugar free Fudgesicle (yummy!!) Between eating every two hours and trying to get the Water in between food and then the calcium chews and Vitamins I feel like I'm always trying to get something down! But I was down 15 lbs at my first week follow up!! Yay!! OMG that pain Syrup in the hospital was awful! I had to plug my nose to get it down. Good news was the prescription I filled after discharge had some cherry flavor and wasn't quite as bad.

I'm on there. Aprilgilley is my user name

The nausea is the worse. Are they giving you Zoloft for it? For me the day after surgery I was super tired and queasy. The walking is great! I'm going to go do that now on a rainy afternoon in NYC. Here's some motivation I finally started losing some weight 10 pounds so far! Keep up the good work super fab!

Just finished all of my pre op tests. OMG the barium stuff is horrid and the test where they have to test your oxygen in your blood..... I felt it in my nostrils. It was awful. But it's done and now is my surgery. I'm ready for the 28th!!!

SJ, I'm so happy you're doing good. I can't believe I got nothing for pain until after I woke up in recovery. Sorry your roommate's people are so inconsiderate. Today was another bad one for me, but I'm sure yours will be good. Been thinking about u and happy ur raring to go

The second I went to my first consult I downloaded this app. That was on December 30th. Starting weight was 326. Today I am 296. It really put into perspective what I put in my mouth and taught me to make better choices. I've put myself on 1200 calories and am exercising. Such a big help since my insurance doesn't require nutritional classes. I highly recommend it to ANYONE pre-op or post!!

SJ! Yay! Well, yay for you. Not your noisy neighbor's guests. Can you say anything to the nurse? Maybe just tell them off yourself? Lol.

Glad to hear you're out and feeling alright! Wahoo!

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

      2. 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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

    • buildabetteranna

      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
