I haven't tried it yet but my dr said I can try new whey. She said it's like a shot of protein and has 42g of protein. She told me I can get it at Walmart and they come in test tubes. Ive been having trouble getting my protein in bc of taste so tomorrow I'm gonna try the new whey.

I was sleeved a week ago and I was prescribed omeprazole capsules. I hate the east of breaking it open so I was wondering if it would be ok to take the whole thing with water?

Ok thank you! I will definitely try different protein drinks.

Yes I'm drinking water. I figured if I feel like this tomorrow I will call them. I actually just got 1% milk and I've been sipping that. I know it's not much protein but I figured it's better then nothing and it's going down good.

I had my sleeve done on 8/4 so I'm 6 days out. I felt great in the hospital and was discharged the next day. I saw my surgeon on 8/7 for 1st post op visit and I told them I've been having a lot of gas and couldn't drink protein because it made it worse. The next day I finally had a bowel movement and the gas finally went away but now I'm nauseous all day long especially when up and walking. I haven't been getting anything near the protein I should be having but I'm getting liquids down. I get up now for a few mins and I get really weak and have to lay back down. Has this happened to anyone else? Will it get better soon?

I was sleeved on 8/4 and felt great in the hospital. On 8/5 I was discharged and before I left the hospital I got liquids down but since I've been home it's been hard. Today is 4 days later and I finally had a little bowel movement but feel so neasous. Since I've been home each day I've taken 2-3 sips of protein. It's been mostly water and Ice chips which I don't think is enough. Also still having gas pains.

I'm from selden, ny. I was just sleeved yesterday by dr ahmad & argwala. I'm feeling pretty good besides the gas pains! I just started drinking liquids so I'm hoping to be discharged later! I can't wait to see the weight start coming off!

I had the gastric sleeve yesterday afternoon. I'm feeling pretty good besides the gas pains. I'm still in the hospital and I just started the liquid stage of my diet. As long as I keep everything down and pain isn't too bad then I get to go home later! ????

My surgery is today also! I need to be at the hospital at 12:45 so I still 5 hours! Hopefully the morning goes by quick!! I'm a little nervous but more excited!

Aug 4th.. Few more days ????????

So I started my preop diet today. I'm allowed 3 protein shakes a day, two fruits (Apple, oranges or pears), and a salad with protein. I was wondering what other peoples preop diet was like and how much you lost during that time frame? My surgery is august 6th.

I'm from Long Island also! I have the band which was placed in 2009 and I absolutely hate it. I'm having it taking out and having the sleeve done on aug 6th. I can't wait!
