    Best Protein Shake

    I have Body Fortress whey isolate. Vanilla cream which gives me 30g per serving.
  2. I was taken into op room at 7:30am. Before I knew it I was in my room and it was 11am. It has been a lot better than I expected. I am walking around like normal. At a slower pace of course. Only issue I had was that they had to use a cathiter to drain me after surgery. After that I have been urinating fine. My surgeon is Dr Wayne Weiss. My surgery was at Good Sumaritan Hospital in Suffern, NY. Recommend them both.

    My fitness pal!

    Hello.. I'm neoflasher on MFP

    5wks out and 40lbs gone!

    Excellent. I hope to have lost that much at 5 weeks. I was sleeved on 8/12 and am down 13.5 lbs since surgery date which was a week ago. I just started Protein shakes today. What I have noticed is if I drink Crystal light or anything besides plain Water I have no issues but sometimes not all the time with plain water I get like a minor pain. Kind of like a small gas pain. Now that I hear about drinking too fast I'm going to slow it down. Maybe that's whats happening.
  5. I'm from Orange county NY. Had my sleeve on 8/12. I was on only clear liquids since surgery until today. Now I'm on protein shakes until further notice. My weigh in the morning of surgery was 292 and I weighed myself this morning and scale hit 278.5. So far so good and no regrets at all on this end. I have my first Dr visit appointment on Tuesday. Will keep you guys posted.

    Just had surgery this morning.

    I'm feeling great. Just started Protein shakes this morning. Everything is going without a hitch. Also had my first bowl movement this morning as well. All seems according to schedule.

    You will be fine. I was expecting the worst to be honest and I have only had minor gas pain. This morning I did 5 min on the eliptical which I decided to stop since I don't want to push it. I do strongly recommend to listen to your Doctor and follow instructions to a T. I was on a full liquid diet since midnight 8/10 and stopped all liquids at 8/11 midnight. I have also followed my phase 0 diet to a T. I think that is also a big reason to why I have had no issues thus far. Don't get me wrong on Sunday prior to surgery my family had some insane looking Pasta and I was sooo tempted to downing a plate or two of that thinking "last meal" but the reward in the long run is worth so much more. I just hope that each day continues as it has and I stay disciplined and on point. Temptations will not stop. We just must learn to overcome them. Good luck

    I know its too soon but I jumped on the scale just to see and it gave me a result of 10.5 lbs less than my weight right before going in for surgery. That was just 4 days ago.

    I just had my surgery this morning at 7:30am by Dr Weiss from Tristate Bariatrics. Everything has been great. Only thing was I needed a catheter to drain my bladder and removed it right away. I am only feeling a little soreness in my chest but have not had any issue sipping my water etc. I am truly surprised at how well I feel. At this very moment I am in the intensive care waiting lounge texting since I have walked around all over the place. Going to my room now. Good night and good luck.
