Hello everyone who just got sleeved or who answered...

Doingitmyway

Are u drinking Protein drinks ?

If so what kind ?

I'm drinking nectar ones mixed with Water I also dilute apple juice. And when I feel I can't get Water down or fluids I'll chew ice crunch ice from sonic is the best

I eat sugar free Jello and with full liquids I eat cream of wheat and I feel full I make it watery so that it's easy to go down. I do get hungry at times but I drink fluids to take that hunger away.

I was feeling pain in my larger incision but it has gone away now

I also eat vanilla Greek yogurt no fruit in it also if u feel u can't front Protein Drinks cuz they are to plain u have a nutrabullet and I put ice in it and. Frozen fruit like peaches mango bananas a scoop of Protein and water and make it like a smoothie then I spoon it like ice cream it's the best if j don't finish it I'll put it in the freezer till I'm ready for more and just let it thaw and blend it again

I was sleeved on 8/9/2016. So far I have had no problems to talk about. Which I am very happy about. I get my Protein in each day does not see a problem. However I am still on the liquid diet. My only problem is is trying to get all the Water necessary in me. I don't particularly like Water nor have I found another type of juice or or drink that I do like so that is the hardest part for me thus far. I hope everything is going well for you and if you have any thoughts on different drinks to get my liquids in I'd appreciate anyone to answer thank you

I don't like regular Water as well. I flavor mine with crystal light just enough for me to drink it and make it very cold. SF ice pops and Decaf herbal teas (raspberry zinger) also help to get the liquids in.

I'm on stage 2 puréed foods, along with my 3 Protein shakes daily. I just now had about 1/4 cup of light progresso cream of potato Soup with some finely shredded chicken breast. Small bites and chew chew chew!! Lol I was sleeved on 08-12-16. Things are going well.

I wish you and everyone the best of luck.

I am drinking 1 shake a day. I like the chocolate Bariatric Advantage with almond milk. I add a little PB2.

I am still doing the 1 shake a day but I am on soft foods so it's a lot easier

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

        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.

      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
