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 lbs this week! Was 226. Now 224. (Sorry a day late...)

2 months out--ACID ugh
HardWork13 replied to jess9395's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
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. -

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

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!

Did any of you have food funerals prior to starting your preop diet?
HardWork13 replied to A_ReNUDE_me's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
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?
HardWork13 replied to xmarycontraryx's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
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
HardWork13 replied to MouseOnTheMile's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
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. -
