Well done on the loss!! I've only lost 12lbs so far hoping to get another 5 off before surgery. This morning I had no appetite at all but now I'm very hungry about to have my salad lunch. Thinking about having a bar or shake for dinner. I am so tired thought I'd get over that by now. We have an added bonus that we have to move out of house into a flat for a month due to house flood so battling that too at the moment.

My surgery is at 1.00pm UK time so 8am US time. Tammy if I drink anymore Water I'm going to float away. I'm about 3-3.5Ls everyday. My meals are 1 weetabix, 2 small pieces of fruit, a salad lunch with 50g Protein and dinner is 50g protein either a small potato or 2 tablespoons of rice and veg. I'm taking my Vitamins as well. Today I've added some nuts because I'm just drained. Guess my lady free appearing doesng help with the tiredness.

So...I added unflavored Protein powder to Jello I made the other day. It didn't turn out that hot, doesn't taste bad just didn't dissolve and left clumps and a sludge at the bottom of the bowl. A friend of mine who also had sleeve told me to try adding the Protein powder to the cold Water because the powder gets a weird consistency with Water over 140 degrees. Tried that tonight...so far so good. I will know in the morning if my Jello turned out perfect.

Had final meeting with surgeon today, pre-admissions done, and labs drawn. All set for the 4th!!!

Now, I've got a question: I want to make up some sugar free jello and pudding with Protein Powder added to them - does anyone know if I can freeze Protein powder like that?? And what about broth?

I want to try to have as much prep done beforehand as I can. I'd love to hear any suggestions ^_^

Looking forward to seeing how it came out...please share the results ;)

Jello came out great!!!! Actually I used my Blender Bottle to mix the cold water and a half a scoop of protein powder no weird taste of anything.

        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
