That's awesome. No problems here. Sleeved Feb 3rd. It hit 29 lbs this morning and 75 lbs total with pre op diet. I'm taking in around 70 ozs of Water, 700 cals and 80 grams of Protein per day. It's going to be an awesome summer for us. Here is a picture of my progress. The two pics are maybe 8 woks apart and around 40 lbs.

Those pictures are amazing! That's Some great progress! :)

Are you taking a ppi like Prilosec, Zantac or Protonix? Sounds like u need to be and if one doesn't work try a different one. I have to take protonix twice a day.

I was also thinking it could be an acid issue. Since I started taking my Prilosec regularly my stomach has felt much better.

I'm drinking 3 Protein Shakes a day (yes at a month out) Muscle Tech has 20 grams per scoop. Add 2% milk and I'm close. I've been experimenting with what foods I can tolerate and I'm there. The fluids is a challenge some days. I really need to focus on drinking. I am now one of those water bottle carrying people.

Would u guys consider the Protein Shakes liquid??

My doc does. Anything liquid counts as overall liquids for the day, and Protein if there's some in the liquid.

Do you mean as Water? My doc and NUT do not.

So I try to sip my lean shake from GNC throughout the day in between meals. Is that normal? Even though it's a "meal replacement" as my mom said? She thinks I should drink it as a meal and not throughout the day. I think i can because it's Protein and a liquid.

Has mom had surgery? Lol. In my first few weeks post op I was lucky to get one shake in during the day. Sip sip sip and get as much in as you can. And don't forget Water too!

And yes. If you're eating you can still drink shake in between. At least that's what I have understood. I do not meet my protein goals without shakes yet. Not sure how I totally missed/didn't read that last sentence.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
