LineCoach, I don't mind it, but I did it on and off during my 4 month supervised diet... Have you added flavorings to them to help?.. 1 tbs peautbutter, or 1/2 a banana and mix in a blender with a few ice cubes??...

Mine is 5 shakes of Nestle Optifast per day with Jello and broth as well. I won’t lie and say I haven’t cheated but for the most part it’s easier to follow than I thought.




I do 4 Optifast and the vanilla isn’t very yummy so I add so peach mango crystal light and now it tastes like a dreamscicle!

Few days left!

How are you guys holding up on the liquid diet? Man I am glad it get easier by the weeks because it is hard!

I am on my 23rd day and I am so sick of only having those Protein Shake that I am counting how many I have left to take (22 left 4xday + 2) and in a week we will have our sleeve :780_sparkling_heart:

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
