I'm having my vsg done April 16th. I have started stocking up on Premier Protein drinks, and Isopure unflavored to add to anything. Also the clear liquid premier drinks but they're very very sweet! So may need to Water those down. 😬 I'm also looking for further suggestions. Good luck to everyone! ❤

I am also April 16th.

I agree the clear liquid drinks are very sweet. I have to Water them down. I generally make two bottles out of one. although you have to drink both to get all the protein..haha

I would love some fruit or meat, I think I just want something to chew. I can have cottage cheese or Jell-O but the cottage cheese only up to 3 times a day and Greek lowfat yogurt up to 3 times a day. So far I haven't noticed any hair loss and I don't start taking Vitamins until a week after surgery. I also have dreads so I only wash my hair about 1-2 times a week and don't brush it.

Still lurking and reading all this good advice. Hey got a question for you folks. My blender died a slow stinky death recently. Want to get a replacement for future pureed and healthy drinks especially if I decide to go the powdered route instead of bottles. Saw on HSN today a hand held blender, is that a good option, should I lean more towards an ordinary upright style or go for a NutraBullet or Ninja?.? What have you had best luck with?

I’m having my surgery in two days on April 2nd. Very excited but also nervous! The liquid diet was hard for the first three days but after that I felt like it got easier. Good luck to all of you!!




Good luck tomorrow.

Yes. I add it to my Water. I also am drinking caffeine free tea iced. I get bored of water too. I’m on day for of my 2 week [mention=335330]domi[/mention]thank you! How is the 2 week diet going? I start my 2 week diet on Monday.

Not bad. Day 3 was the hardest craving wise. I added 3 servings of Metamucil on day 6 to help with Constipation and on day 8 started doing Miralax at bedtime. The constipation has been the worst part.

Smooth Move Tea, and good news for all interested peeps--- Smooth Move has now come out with a peppermint version in addition to the original formula. Saw it yesterday on my biweekly pilgrimage to WalMart[emoji106]

The chamomile isn't bad. But it still made my tummy uncomfortable like laxatives.

        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
