Protein helps your tummy heal and feeds your muscles while your body is in "starvation" mode. Our body doesnt need to burn muscle, it needs to burn our fat. If you are looking unflavored, Isopure and Unjury both have excellent unflavored Proteins. What has your NUT or surgeon set up for what you can have at this stage? I was on liquid the 1st 2 weeks. I just started pureed.< /p>

Doctor wants me on liquids! But I'm getting tired of Water, crystal light, and pedialyte

<p>This too shall pass. Seems to me that you are about right on track....Your body is dealing with a lot right now. Be kind to yourself and rest when you need to. Also try Premier shakes. Not bad for being a shake. Try to keep your electrolytes up too.</p> <p>sip sip sip....</p> <p> </p> <p>Allow yourself the time to heal. This is part of it all! K </p>

Where can I get premier? And m I allowed to have that? I'm so confused as to what I can have and not. I keep researching thing and some contradict each other.

Not really taking any Protein. Only electrolytes I'm getting is from pedialyte but it's very sweet.

Hello, I'm 7 days post op and I can't get over this exhaustion!!! My head also hurts. I'm only able to drink Water, pedialyte, and very little broth. I saw that I can also drink carnation instant Breakfast but can't find any unsweetened. Any suggestions I can't take this!

I had terrible hiccups the first two days. I know mine was not from drinking to fast. I barely ever had any fluids due to the severe pain. I gets better I'm 7 days post op now.

Yesterday I was dehydrated I almost went to the ER. My husband said to try pedialyte and I did. It really helped. Feeling way better today. I actually got up, got dressed (other than gym clothes), slapped some make up on, and went to target.

GAS!!!! I was like what? Well I'd rather have a baby lol it was soooo bad.

I had the same thing and I went to the ER. They have me a strong pain med and a has reliever and I felt better after a couple of hours. I'm 7days post op. I hope you get better because the pain is not fun!!!

Hello I'm so happy to hear that you are better. I had surgery may 9th and also had a hernia. I'm having lots of trouble drinking fluids because it hurts soooo bad! I feel really weak, dizzy, and have a huge headache. I am barely consuming 4 to 8 oz of Water a day. I think I might have to make a trip to the ER.

I was also out the next day! But had to go to the emergency after a couple of hours of being out. I could not swallow pain meds and the pain became unbearable. The gas pain is the worst. Then when that is all gone you feel extremely sore. I had surgery 6 days ago and still have some pain. The worst part is learning how to sip and wait for that pain to go away before you can take another sip! I'm hoping this gets better. On another note I have lost 14lbs so far yay!!!

Good job! I had surgery on Friday May 9th and have lost 14lbs. My intake is minimal. I just hurt very much when I drink my liquids. But I'm excited about the lbs dropping. Keep up the great work!!! ????????

Hello! I also had gerd. My doctor actually encouraged me to have the sleeve. My heart was set for the band. I had surgery on Friday May 9th. During surgery they had to correct a hernia that was cause by my acid reflux. I'm happy so far with the sleeve. It is painful but I know that it will be all worth it at the end.
I would suggest you talk to another doctor.
Good luck!

Hope every momma here had a beautiful day. I had surgery on Friday and still having lots of pain. I have not been able to drink too much and taking pain meds hurt. Has this been normal to any of you?

Thank you all! I am waited but I'm sure I will be going through soon! Will update later

I'm getting sleeved tomorrow too!! We will do fine. Can't wait to see your results .

I am hours away of surgery. I am scheduled for 8am I am super excited and appreciate everyone support! We are all in it together. Thanks for the feedback

Hello! I am have surgery on Friday and I am having many emotions right now. I'm excited for a new beginning but also nervous for the surgery part. Can you please giving some input on how you have managed. Thanks
