Thanks everybody. I appreciate everyone's input.

Have anybody tried The Body Fortress protein from Walmart? It has 30 gr protein.vanilla cream.

I am currently drinking A couple of the Nectar fruit drinks and it is all I can do to get them down. They. Are to sweet! I think I would much rather have a great tasting yet a good quality shake that is. Vanilla or chocolate not fruitty. I know I will have to have something that I enjoy because I will be drinking it from now on. I would appreciate hearing your likes and dislikes.

It is so great to know that most everyone has these same thoughts after surgery. I have wanted to eat ever since surgery and I read that most people don't have any desire for food from anywhere from 3 weeks to months after surgery.For me that has not been the case. Tuesday will be 3 weeks and I can start on soft/puréed foods . It can't get here soon enough. It helps to know that your not alone in your thoughts and that things will get normal .

How many grams of protein does it have?

Dr's office said it would take about 3 to 3 1/2 weeks for the pain to go away.My largest incision is on my left side because that is where the stomach was pulled out. The pain goes from there to my navel and a little below. I guess i aggravated it where they had to cut into the muscles and tendons. Thanks for everyone's advice.

I have had major pain starting 4 days after surgery. I was coughing quite a bit and when it first happened it felt like I had ripped my insides. I called dr,s office and they said was normal.3 days later I am still hurting when I try to get up from a sitting position. I have slept sitting straight up for the last 3 nights. There is a major burning sensation but a sharp pain also with numbness from my. Navel to my left Side. Anybody else have this problem?

What is omeprozale?

Strange how some people are not the least bit hungry for weeks after surgery and then some of us are ravenous within a couple of days. Makes no sense at all.

Hi everyone! I am having my surgery tuesday the 17th, 3 more days to go! I'm excited and ready, I think. LOL! I am definitely ready to be slimmer and healthier! Good luck everyone !

Looking for Dr. in Dallas area and on paper Dr. Nicholson looks great.
