Not understanding how I gained 4 pounds , do all I'm pose except the Protein Shakes until I find one that agrees with me. My primary care said the G2 Gatorades might have done it because they have 7 grms of sugar but that's what my surgeon suggested that I drink with my Water as well. Who has RNY and gain is what I'm saying being 5weeks out from surgery

It could be not enough Protein, too much sugar or carbs or even not enough Water.

Just keep working at getting that Protein in.

I drank g2 for the first few weeks as it was all I could tolerate. Now I'm back to plain Water, full leaf tea, or Vitamin water zero.

I gained 2 pounds with my period. I think a lot of us do.

Right and mines just came on today

Hi Tyani, I use the brand Milk shake BAR for my Protein Shakes. They have several flavors, are not gritty, no aftertaste and they even taste good when mixed with water! I get them from Amazon, they are supposed to be available at Whole Foods Market in the beginning of 2017. I also use a drink called Isopure Ready To Drink, they also have several flavors, my favorite is Blue Raspberry. They come in 20 oz bottles and have 40 grams of Protein. They are very good and have no aftertaste. I hope this helps you! Protein Powder. 1-888-582-2580, www.proteinmilkshakebar.com, Best Wishes & Good Luck!!!!

I haven't been drinking my Protein Shakes , I don't have no sugar at least nothing I'm not suppose to have as far as sodas candy cakes I don't eat or have any of that . what I do have is salmon, Spanish, sugar free freeze pops , or sugar free ice cream. I have a half of boiled egg. Love me some Water. I did have a bacon sandwich. And I was drinking G2 Gatorade which I just stopped on Tuesday . what could have put the 6 pounds on me? I don't work out to be honest anymore just don't have the strength. My menstral just came on yesterday but got news that I gained Tuesday. So I don't quite understand

        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
