  1. Apparently since my sleeve on 10/21, the taste of any whey protein powder tastes awful to me. I can barely finish one. Found one but fear the calories are too high.. Any suggestions for a better tasting powder?? Thanks

    2 months out--ACID ugh

    I had it before my sleeve, and within a month, got 100% worse! I now take dexilant 2x a day. My dr said it could take 6 months to resolve. Good luck! I sympathize. Talk to an on call dr @ your office.

    Craving

    I too loved wings. A place near me bakes them and they're skinless. On another note, google buffalo chicken chili. It's delicious.

    Prilosec?

    I had heartburn prior to my sleeve. Was taking 40 mg omeprazole once a day. Had hiatal hernia fixed @ same time as sleeve. After surgery my heartburn also went to a new level. I had awful heartburn 24/7. I am now on 60 mg dexilant 2x a day and finally don't have gerd!

    Any Jersey Sleevers?

    Hope all went well! Congratulations on your new journey.
  19. I did too.. weekend before pre-op diet began, I had my favorites. That was the last time I've had any of it.. I do sometimes feel I still crave some, but I tell myself it's head hunger and go for some water to delay that feeling..

    Am I eating too much?

    I'd say stop when you're full. My stomach would and still almost seizes when I'm full and try another bite. Good luck & take it slow. You'll know.

    Protein Powder Blues

    So what brands do you use? I also had an awful reaction to whey post op. I bought an unflavored soy protein but haven't figured out how to mix it yet. So far my oatmeal came out like cement.
