Today is day 28 post surgery. Pre consult weight 11/23 was 255. SW 12/8 was 249.6. Today at dawn: 228.0. So 21 pounds in 21 days, that's nice and steady on paper, but it was like 14 pounds in 10 days and then a 10 day stall where I lost inches and not pounds. The third week stall is a thing, and it happened to me. I am 5'11" and my goal is to get down under 185. My doc said at my surgery weight of 149, I was 100 pounds over IDEAL weight... But I don't know that 149 for me IS ideal. I looked pretty skinny at 185. So, that is my goal. Under 185. I wonder how long this will take? At 4 weeks, I have somewhat gone off the reservation with the liquid-vs-blended-vs-puree. I decided to keep my sleeve secret from my family. So at two weeks, I was at Christmas vacation with the big group. I did tell them a partial truth: I had ended up in the hospital with dry heaves so bad I was admitted for two days (which is exactly what happened after my outpatient procedure) and I wasn't going to eat much and don't worry about it. No one did, much. So, I had a nibble if veg-puree and gravy, wet BBQ, eggs, a crumb of biscuit, etc. The results have been mixed, but I am pleased. Tracking every gram of Protein an calories. Ugg. I hate protein shakes....

Good morning all. I'm still 2 nutritionist appointments away from setting my surgery date. But already the nerves are starting. All of your posts are so extremely helpful and insightful. I wish you all much success and God bless

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
