  1. yes! I bought the sugar free syrups too lol. This is just strange : ) I'm going to keep at it!
  2. Hi All: I had surgery on May29th. And I hate, hate, hate Protein shakes now lol Before surgery, even before liquid diet, I had Protein Shakes and green protein smoothies for Breakfast. Loved them! But my sleeve and taste buds hate them. I'm definitely not getting my protein in- trying but the gas, discomfort and pooping is exhausting. I've tried everything but I truly believe my body hates that powdery processed crap lol My sleeve is cool with strained organic Soup but the protein - i just don't know Talked to team and they suggested other Proteins - still not working. I'm looking forward to Friday when I can have eggs, Beans & tuna. For some reason I feel like I'll be able to benefit from those proteins better. We'll see : )
  3. You are so close! Good job : )

  5. Sorry just saw this... Hope you are doing okay. Please check in. I am a week out today.
  6. Hi All! Sleeved a week ago today. I've dropped 20 pounds since the start of my two week liquid diet. I feel fine, but struggling with Protein. Tried different types of Proteins but all are resulting in lots of gas and loose bowels. I try to avoid dairy so I did well straining a vegan pea Soup. I'm really wondering if it's the synthetic nature of the protein mixes?? Staying hydrated, though.
  7. . Your body, your life! There is nothing to be disgusted about. This is not an easy road. People should not judge. A total of four family members know - hubby, mother and two nieces who live with us. They have been wonderful. I will tell my brothers and father eventually, but I didn't want everyone all up in my business with their opinions. This was not an easy choice for me; I've contemplated WLS for 9 years. Attended info sessions & backed out of surgery a week and a half before my date last year. This time I was ready and I needed no other opinions. Sorry she was rude to you : )
