  1. I am getting comments from others that I'm losing too much weight in my face. I'm starting to wrinke and I'm only two months post op. If you've lost too much weight in your face, what did you do about it? Did you do facial exercises, a facelift or something else? Please share. I don't like this. Thanks in advance!

    Best Protein Powder Post Op

    I love genopro flavorless Protein. One scoop equals 30 grams of protein. You can get it on Amazon.com. This is some amazing stuff!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  3. Hello: So I'm six weeks out of surgery and I'm experiencing bad acid reflux. Seems that everything I eat is coming back up in a foam form. Did anyone else experience this and what did you do for it. I've never had this problem before. What were you eating at 6 weeks post op. I'm wondering if I'm eating the wrong foods. I'm on solids now. Thanks in advance!

    6 weeks post op!

    Congratulations on your weight loss! Keep up to good work. I had a low BMI when I went in 6 weeks ago and had much less to lose. I started at 176 and I'm down to 155.4. I'm pleased with my progress and I'm no longer diabetic!!!
  5. Hi there: I'm scheduled to have my surgery done with this doctor and am interested in hearing about your experience with her. She came highly recommended by the Surgical Board and has been voted top 10 Bariatric Surgeons in the world. Even so, I would like some real life experiences. Thank you in advance!

    Any June sleevers out there?

    Premier ready to drink shakes gives you 30 grams per carton. Also genopro flavorless Protein powder can be added to anything. I add it to Soups and it has 30 grams per scoop. It's been a lifesaver. I get about 90 grams of protein per day. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  9. I feel swelling around the incision on my right side. It's under my skin and it feels like a big lump. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this. I have a light bruising outside of it as well. Is this normal? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  10. Yes, I actually went in to see a nurse yesterday and they said it looks perfectly normal. Just part of the healing process.

    Protein Bars

    Thank you!
  12. My surgeon is not allowing me to drink Protein until week 5 because of leakages. I asked her in an email why I can't introduce protein until week five and this is what she says : it is to prevent leakage because of the consistency of protein. Has anyone else ever experienced this? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

    Protein Bars

    At which stage can we have Protein bars? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  14. I started two days ago and I want to be creative. What did you eat during this stage? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  15. Thank you! I love wonton soup!
  16. Yum! Will be getting some of that soon!
  17. Did you blend it in the blender? Sounds delicious!!!yup. I have a vitamix but I think any old blender would whiz up soup. Perfect! I have a Vitamin too! Can't wait!
  18. Did you blend it in the blender? Sounds delicious!!!
  19. I started using premier shakes. Like you, I can't do more than 4oz at a time either. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  20. Yes. I obtained a new doctor and NUT and am starting the full liquid stage today and am on protein! Yay!!! At the grocery store shopping now. They both agreed that 5 weeks of no Protein is dangerous! Thanks for thinking of me!!!
  21. I'm 4 days post op and my surgeon requires I do a 2 week clear liquid diet, 2 week full liquid diet and then add Protein supplements at week five. This just does not sound right to me. What did your NUT require? Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  22. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding. It was Clear Liquids for two weeks, full liquids 2 weeks and the 5th week add a protein supplement.
  23. I would LOVE to know what studies show this. It is the first I have ever heard of anything like that. All the studies I have seen are about the importance of Protein. Yes I would love to see them too. However I'm not even going to bother. I found another NUT locally that I will be working with. I just cannot take the chance of not having protein for 5 weeks.
