That's it, this is a day's worth in the life of Redhead [emoji14] I drink my 16 oz (or 8 oz if it's the cookie flavor) of Water in my shake, then from like, 8am-10am I've finished another 24 oz. And from around 12:30-3 I'm working on the next 24 oz. Finish whatever I still need to at home after dinner and typically before 8pm. I keep a Water on my nightstand if I get thirsty in the night, but try not to break into any food or liquid after 8. This is pretty average for me. It's pretty low Fiber so sometimes I supplement, sometimes I don't. My pipes run smooth enough so to speak so I don't worry about it a lot. I haven't seen the nutritionist since like, a month post op, but she said "it's not really about calories, it's about your macros" so if I meet my Protein (the one I worry about) in less than 400 calories and feel full, I'm chill.

Cool, never any hunger etc? when's the next time you see the NUT? Can you ask if everyone is low cal in your program and until when. I'm interested in knowing where everyones programs want them. Mine has me at 1000 cals. Also is synthrax fruity or milky?

Not really--Snacking was never on my surgeon/nutritionist plan they gave me so I never snacked. So I guess my body was trained or knows to expect food in the AM, lunch, and dinner and that's it. I don't see then nutritionist again unless I want to, which I don't (would have to pay for it, not included in my surgery). I think my program's average calories as it said in my binder was 800-1,000 a day or less once you reach 8weeks out. I just happen to meet it in less than that and so far no consequences. I have my yearly already scheduled so we'll see what they say about it then.

Syntrax has both types. The Fuzzy Navel is fruity, tastes like orange juice to me. The cookie flavor I have is better with almond milk if I have it and that'll taste milky, maybe too sweet for some but I like it.

      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.
