First off, don't eat and drink at the same time, even if you "can", drinking while eating flushes the food through your pouch. Just stop that habit right now, go back to the waiting 30 mins after eating to drink.

You've provided no other information, we don't know your daily calorie count, Water intake, etc etc etc.

But from what you've said, your surgery worked just fine, you've just stopped working with your surgery.
Time to get back on the horse and start following the instructions you were originally provided. If you are unsure, call your surgical team and follow up with them, you should be doing that anyway as you really should have done your 1 year follow up blood work at this point.

Very encouraging. I just went through the information stage. I am a little sccared. I want to loose 150 lbs. What is your best advise.

Curious, why was my post funny/laughable?

Very likely a mistake

Maybe... but maybe not... we'll have to see if they take the time to bother to answer.

Shewww! For a second I thought IIIIIII was the one who clicked on the laughy emoji! :) And I'd do it only cuz I'm used to you crackin' me up--so it's reflexive. :D

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
