I am two days post op. I'm having a very hard time drinking anything. It hurts all the way down to my stomach. I froze some Isopure into Popsicles so I will see how that works put.

How did the frozen Isopure work for u?

Day 15 today and I just got the clearance to DRIVE! I am so ready to leave the house. I'm in the purée stage of the diet but very stupidly ate a piece of cheese yesterday and got dumping syndrome almost immediately, that was NOT cute. Not exercising yet cause I'm not drinking enough and my nutritionist says it's dangerous. Good luck to you all!

I poured half over ice and then the other half over ice an hour later and it went down fine. I WANT THE pudding SOOOOO BAD, LOL LOL LOL. I'm really not hungry, just tired of Water, brother and icee. Lol lol. Everyone of my neighbors is BBQ and it smells good everywhere! I can't wait until I can have a little bite of turkey burger. Lol

I was sleeved on May 5th, SO 317, CW 280. I'm struggling the past few days. I'm so bored with Soups, Protein Shakes and mushy food. I just want a salad for crying out loud!!!! And some grilled chicken. I have no motivation right now to eat or walk. I feel like I'm starving all of the time but nothing sounds appealing. Anyone else feeling like this?

I thought after 3 weeks we could eat salad and grilled chicken?

I can't. My doctor had me on Water and broth the week of surgery. Then 2 weeks on water, broth and Protein Shakes. Now I'm starting 2 weeks of liquids, pureed and Protein shakes. After these 2 weeks I can move on to solid foods. That is the plan he puts all of his patients on.

Amp, you are depressing yourself. You have to get up and walk. You have to find something else to take your mind off of food. Food has literally been our lives, now you must focus on who you are without it. Food can not be your everything. YOU HAVE TO WALK. Your motivation is your health. Come on YOU CAN DO IT! we all can!!!!

        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!

      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
