Judomofo 1 Posted April 5, 2018 A few days left to go, this liquid diet definitely has its ups and downs. First few days were pretty rough, then I fell into a groove, but I do notice some days are good and some are bad. I had to go outside last night because my family was eating pizza, that was pretty rough. But excited and nervous, and ready to begin this next chapter. I have not cheated once, I am feeling strong mentally for this challenge and this lifestyle change. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Judomofo 1 Posted April 5, 2018 FYI: I have ordered some of the Soups off this site, just to give me something more savory as a lot of the broths weren't super great. I got the variety pack, and I have really liked it. I also ordered Unjury's chicken Soup Flavored Protein Powder. Both have been really great, especially while still participating eating with the family, just having the soups. They are great because they have 15 to 21g of Protein and no carbs, fats, or sugars. My 2 week was pretty much Premier Protein and Greek Yogurt, about 800 calories, 50g of carbs and 150g of protein with no fat. So adding the soups in have definitely helped at least get through things, I have juiced a few vegetable juice blends too, just to give myself something other than the sweetness of the shakes and yogurt. Just a few more days... you guys are doing awesome and really enjoy reading the updates! 1 karmanodrama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jjburton 7 Posted April 6, 2018 I love the Premier shakes abd drinks. I'm not too fond of the vanilla. I was given some Isopure today, so I'll try it Sunday. What other food to you plan to try because I can't stomach cottage cheese.< br>Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile appHi ladies my surgery was 2/27. I wanted to tell you that Amazon has a flavored Protein Water that is not bad. I pour it over ice chips and sip it. Good luck to you.Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jjburton 7 Posted April 6, 2018 I struggle with that too I always have to have my drink next to me..im always thirsty.I think that one will be hard for me to adjust to and remembering not to gulp down my drinks.< br>Sent from my LG-H918 using BariatricPal mobile appIt is a hard habit to break but the way you feel after you do it...will remind you quickly.Sent from my Z981 using BariatricPal mobile app 1 karmanodrama reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Elfields84 7 Posted April 8, 2018 I was sleeved April 3. Am I the only one who was immediately put on stage 2 diet the day after surgery? Seems like everyone is on Clear Liquids except me. I actually havent tried eating anything beyond yogurt since coming home because I'm having a hard time with getting it in. I've only been able to drink 1 full bottle of Water on 1 day. Today I'm trying to drink at least one full Protein Shake and 2 waters throughout the day Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

karmanodrama 31 Posted April 8, 2018 I had my sleeve done onApril 4. The GERD is pretty awful but tolerable. It should go away as i lose weight. But what is so weird to me is that i feel like i can eat anything. I dont seem to get full. I am in full liquids but i can swallow whole pills that are huge. I can eat a whole packet of cream of wheat. It takes me longer but i still eat the whole thing. I wonder if my pouch isnt as small as most people. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
