Milk
Not sure about Lactaid, never tried it. I used to drink a gallon a milk in 2-3 days before surgery, I missed milk but this Mootopia tastes so good. The chocolate milk is high in sugar though

Milk
Milk is not my friend anymore. I found Mootopia, it's lactose free, tastes like milk and 12 grams protein per 8oz!

New To Group
Hi. I am about 5 weeks out. From talking with my surgeon and research I did, people have issues at 2-3 years due to old habits. They learn how to stretch the pouch and eat poorly again. Like my surgeon and nutritionist say, this is a tool not a magic pill. I wish you luck

Protein Help

Skin Firming Cream/lotions
Panda In Texas we have a grocery store called HEB. I just got it in their band aid area. Check your local grocery in the same department. They look like a big band aid and I cut down according to the size of my incision site. I figured I would need Biooil or mederma for them but these work and are cheap. Mine were $9 for 28 sheets. I can cover all sites with almost 1 sheet

Skin Firming Cream/lotions
Nivea skin firming had good reviews so I bought that. For incision marks, a plastic surgeon I work with suggested HEB brand silicone sheets. I cut them up and use those. They do work.
