Upcoming Surgery

My upcoming surgery is getting closer. The big day is July 8th. I have been on the liquid diet since last week and I get very hungry at times, but I can get through this! I have been trying different protein shakes and have not found 1 that I can handle. Has anyone had luck in finding a decent tasting protein drink? If anyone has any tips, I would be grateful to hear them.

My surgery date is the 8th as well! I have been on liquids for 6 days. I am using Pro7ein Synthesis (?) from Nutrishops, because my order from Bariatric Advantage hasn't arrived yet. I think it is a pretty good tasting shake - I only have the vanilla one. The nurse in the office did tell me that I could add a tablespoon of sugar-free pudding mix or sugar-free jello to my shakes to add a bit of flavor and variety. There are all all sorts of flavors of sugar free pudding, but I think my favorite adds so far are the lemon and banana creme. I mix my shakes with 4 oz of 2% milk, 6 oz of water, ice, protein powder and pudding in a shaker cup and it makes a good shakes. Plus one scoop of protein is 34g of protein! I also have a cup of broth around dinner time each night, which gives me a break from the "sweet" shakes. Hope that helps! Good luck on the 8th!

I like the chocolate splendor by unjure. Order on line. Couldn't stand the Bariactic Advantage stuff.

    • I’ve used my Xbox for exercise games too and it can be pretty motivating, especially on days when I don’t want to leave the house. Kinect games really do make you move, and after a session with kickboxing or dancing, I always feel like I’ve actually gotten a solid workout. The controller-free setup feels way more natural for workouts than anything I tried on the Wii. Zumba is fun but definitely takes a little time to get the moves right. Lately, when I’m not working out, I spend time trading CS2 skins and finding new guides on this link. There’s a lot of interesting tips if you’re into games outside of fitness too.
