I can honestly say that ever since I've been using the nutribullet that I've definitely seen an improvement. For example people complain about Constipation so I experience it also. So I've decided to use raw cabbage banana blueberrys or mixed berries flax seed or chia seed. And now I have regularity with no issues since drinking the smoothies on a daily basis and it also counts towards Fluid intake.

I have a NutriBullet that I use daily. I love it.

My nutritionist advised that Chia Seed would not be good for me after I sleeve. Does your new stomach tolerate it ok?

well basically I use cabbage as a base veggie or one could use kale and spinach. I often put a piece of fruit for flavor and add chia or flax seeds. I use Water for consistency as this will count towards total daily Fluid intake. There is no limit to the ingredients you can use however listen to your sleeve when you try different recipes. oh I will add 1 ounce of raw almonds. also be aware of any bloated feeling that you can adjust the ingredients to what will be comfortable for you.

      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.
