I just bought the packet miralax! Its sugarfree! And unflavored so I added it to my crystal light! Will let everyone know how it goes!

I have essentially NO appetite on the liquid diet. This is the end of week 2 and I can barely tell when I need to drink a shake, oddly enough.

It’s finally here- I go to the hospital tomorrow morning for my gastric sleeve surgery! Strange mixture of anxiety and excitement. All prayers and good vibes appreciated!!!! See ya on the losers bench!

I had my sleeve surgery on august 6th. At time of surgery I was 370 today I am down to 351. This is 6 days post op. I’m CRAVING a slice of pizza soooo bad... lol I’m also having trouble finding a good Protein Shake. I’m an extremely picky eater and have a problem with texture. Any hold would be appreciated. Thanks!

My favorite is the premier chocolate , caramel and Cookies and cream. You can mix some fat free fair life milk into it if it’s to sweet or thick

The most popular shakes are the premier ones. So many different flavors. But if you have a texture problem (I feel your pain). Maybe you need to find a Protein Powder and mix it to your liking with your liquid of choice (milk or water). Best wishes!

Premier bananas and cream is my favorite. I have yet to have run into the Cookies and cream, sounds yummy!

Woo Hoo Ladies - I'm nearly 12 hours away from my surgery. I have to check in at 5:30am so I'm going to go to bed as early as possible tonight. I did one final kickboxing workout this morning so hoping that will help put me to sleep later on.

I've been wrapping up all sorts of errands to get things done before my surgery. Grocery shopping and meal planning for the family is done. Did a bunch of laundry and left some instructions for the hubby. I'm so grateful that I can afford someone to clean my house and they'll be coming while I'm in the hospital so I get to come to a completely clean and clutter free home.

Ready to go!!!
