Hi all, Has anyone ever heard of RAP Protein? I found it in the grocery store yesterday. It's a protein that are gummies! It has 20 grams of protein and 9 grams of sugar. I wanted to know if anyone tried it. Thanks

Hi everyone, I asked this question in the Post Op forum, I decided to ask again to those who had their surgery a little longer than I had mine. Are you all able to drink from a straw? And if so, are you having any problems? I find myself getting gas when I drink out of a bottle or cup. My stomach starts to rumble really bad throughout the day. Thanks

Hi DJMohr, Did you need a hiatal hernia that needed to be removed in order to help with your reflux issues?

The thought of herbal tea makes me gag lol. But thanks for the suggestion. I did just buy me a large variety of water enhancers a few minutes ago. Hopefully that'll help.

Ok, wow that's interesting. People I know that had gastric bypass or gastric sleeve are able to drink carbonated drinks but maybe it's too soon for me. I just have a craving for a coke. Any suggestions?

Ok, in my guide book it states that I can drink caffeine around 3-4 weeks post. I'm dying for a coke or a Coke Zero ????????. My question is, do you think it's best to dilute it?

Thanks guys! I'm with Stacey. Whenever I drink from a cup or bottle it seems I get, and I wanted to try drinking from a straw but a little hesitant.

Hi all, Silly question, but when is it ok to drink from a straw?

GNC carries a coconut water called Cocotein and it has 20 grams of protein, and lactose free.

I'm having the same problem. The right side of my mouth is sensitive. Especially with cold.

Isopure is a bit sour but I so much enjoy it rather than shakes! It's so good over ice!

I'm 16 days post. It's like I have to force myself to eat. Nothing sounds appetizing. But I did buy a box of gas x strips, and I am going to pop one of those babies in in just a few minutes lol. Thanks guys!

Is anyone else having problems with this? Any suggestions? Plus, I keep getting gas trapped in my stomach and it feels terrible. It feels like rumbles. I'm starting to regret having this surgery ????

I have tried gas x, and it helped for about 30 minutes. I walked up and down the stairs and it helped but the pain came back I'm hungry but scared to eat anything

This it's embarrassing but I have gas, and no matter what I take or do it will not go away. My stomach hurts really bad and I'm waiting fur the doctor to call me. I have not been able to eat or drink pretty much all day today. Any suggestions? Thanks

Might be lunch tomorrow!

Hello, Does anybody have any good Protein recipes? I drink the

Maybe it's me but the Premier strawberry shake leaves an after taste, but I have yet to try chocolate and vanilla.

Wow! I guess my surgery was a little different. I don't have a drain and my stitches were internal.

Hi everyone, Quick question. When can i sleep on my stomach?

No, I haven't started exercising just yet. My doctor did say wait 3 weeks before I hit the gym, but I feel well enough to walk on the treadmill so I may start tomorrow or Wednesday. I did hear Protein is what make you lose your weight the fastest. I've been slacking on protein ????

No, this is after surgery. I didn't go on a diet or anything before surgery. I've 24 lbs. so far.

I've lost 22 lbs so far and my surgery was on 8/4.

I'll have to buy some cottage cheese tomorrow. But I did eat scrambled eggs and oh my goodness it was the best lol!

I hate cottage cheese but right about now it sounds like lobster and streak to me lol.
