Unflavoured Protein one scoop 25 gr add to anything, cream Soup yogurt, pudding. Protein shake for breakfast and snack 30- soup with 25 gr I've already had 55 by lunch Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

@@Military Ma now that you are home are you full fluids vs clear? Strained cream soup with unsweetened Protein powder is my fav. Also when I first tried pudding or yogurt(with protein powder) it hurt I think cuz it was too thick so I added soy milk to make it thinner. Worked awesome. Fortunately nothing tastes bad to me ... yet lol is that a good thing or bad! straight Water I find hurts my tummy a bit not sure why. If I add crystal light or juice it's much better.

I'm one week tomorrow. I can't believe I was crying this time last week freaking out. I think I have one incision that may need to be looked at. Still take pain pills although cut it back to one instead or two. I've been driving and Christmas shopping to walk. . I do get tired too. I bought unflavoured Protein Powder that I mix in with my cream of something Soup (yes I strain it). That's 25 grams of Protein, add in a Premier Protein shake 30 grams and yogurt with protein powder another 25 then anything else is extra. Down 10 lbs since surgery not sure if that's good average ??

@@cookie49 you'll be fine --- short term pain long term gain. Good luck Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm almost 5 days out and I just drove for the first time today. It wasn't bad, bumps are challenging i had to hold my tummy. Not sure about 12 hours but if not driving you could take pain killers and have naps. Recline to if you can. Need to make sure you have all the liquids needed but that should be the easy part. I was out 3 hours walking around grocery shopping, looking at stuff (first time out). I was sore by the end. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I'm surprised you didn't get an eating plan. I think I got mine three times orientation, the surgeon and the dietitian. Three weeks full liquids, two weeks puréed food then soft foods. I understand the wanting something crunchy even if you end up sucking it. Lol I have to cook food for my son and it smells so good. . I'm a cheezie freak, or hopefully ex freak.

I was a mess. A single mom preparing wills and good bye letters. How do you say goodbye to your kid in a letter? I was crying off and on for the about 3 day before. The morning of I felt calmer. When they took me in I started to get overwhelmed and tears were coming. Next thing I knew I was waking up, it was over. I had a rough time coming out and a lot of pain especially when drinking. Today is day three and drinking is better. Still have some pain. Walking does help... a lot. Like others so glad I didn't change my mind. Although, . Still have moments of what did I just do. I'm not taking as much pain pills so that's a good sign too. No nausea either. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
