One-week checkup went great, lost 7 pounds.  Moved me to Phase 2, just had a scrambled egg...it was DELISH!!  Think I'm going to have cottage cheese for dinner.  Happy to be actually eating something, it's been a long 3 weeks (pre-op and Week 1 clear liquids)!!

Congrats on your weight loss and happy you get to eat soft foods. Full liquids is tough. My vertical sleeve surgery was the same date as yours. :) I have my first NP appt. tomorrow.

I am allowed protein shakes on my post-op liquid diet.

Yes, for both the 2-week pre-op and the 1 week post-op clear liquid diet. The only exception to "clear" liquids was the skim milk in protein drinks.  You have to have them otherwise you don't get enough protein and you need it to heal.
