Thank you guys i will most definitely start logging and being a little more health conscious.... @ivgottbelower i eat a lot of nuts lots of it and that may be my issue right there.... imma start watching my portions more as well I’ll try the IF like 2 days a week and see how it works thank u all for your encouragement and ideas i have been feeling so defeated lately thank u

I use the fair life fat free milk sometimes i add banana or Peanut Butter, or sometimes i add halo top ice cream to take away the proteiny taste... i dont drink nor do i like coffee but the other flavors u mention sound really yummy i might just try that... i normally do the Protein Shakes for Breakfast only wonder if i can do it for dinner as well... i will look into the ones you mentioned thank you

I’m not looking for a quick fix at all. I’m going to try that going back to my post op diet.... i wanted to lose 30lbs more then maintain i felt like i didnt lose enough like i should of lost more... and my doctor Assitant even took me i could of lost more so i felt a bit defeated 😕... i dont want a quick honestly i just need to be healthier but i wish i wasnt such an emotional eater and since surgery i snack more than i eat regular food which is bad i know it’s bad i need to be a lot more responsible what i put in. MY system... then i hate Protein Shakes the only one i like is Quest do u know any other nice Protein Shake

Hi kitty you’re absolutely right... i was considering IF it Keto to reset my eating habits... and try to lose 30lbs i fell off really bad from my diet I’m so disappointed

I’m feeling a little depressed of lately and have been eating my emotions away.. I’m 1 year post gastric sleeve i only lost a total of 70lbs i was hoping to loose at least a 100 or more based on most people i know lost 100 or more. I only lost 70 but i know why because I’ve been eating off way off...

In addition i gained like 6-7lbs i was 268 now I’m 274.i started at 243 I have to get back in track i got really excited that i can eat and been snacking on a lot of nuts plus i wanna work out more haven’t done it consistently since surgery.. i also wanna do the Keto diet have anyone tried keto or intermittent fasting after gastric sleeve...


I know i ‘m my own downfall when it comes to my diet!!!!


I’ve been thru so much with surgery and complications i dont wanna gain it back i need some motivation and some inspiration...

Feeling so defeated

Premier has a clear Protein fruit punch drink now too, but I liked the Powerade Zero fruit punch better, although it has no protein.

2 days?!? I had to do 2 weeks, and was just about dying by the end!!!
Ok, enough whining.
I don't like plain broth, so I used the flavor packs out of Ramen noodles. Tons of popsicles, Jello, and tea.
By the end of the 2 weeks, I was so desperate I drank Pickle Juice.

Quick question for those who had to do the clear liquid diet. What did you drink I got a list from my nutrionist which is a bit confusing I got the Powerade zero fruit punch but then the list said no artificial color I'm lost what did you guys use for your clear liquid phase

How are you guys planning to prepare for the liquid diet phase what are you guys planning to drink? This is a list my nutritionist give me but I'm so confused 🤷🏾‍♀️

I'm on the 18th but I'm in Australia, so should be the same day as you. I've started preop and it's not too bad. I'm going back to work 4 days after except I requested to work from home for two weeks. I'd like to know how you go tho because I'd rather be in the office then stuck inside my house

Why mix Halo Top with a Protein Shake when you can simply ditch the shakes and eat the Halo Top by itself to obtain your Protein? Mixing the two would seem to be calorie overload.
Most flavors of Halo Top contain 20 grams of protein and 240 to 280 calories per pint. Some 'richer' flavors have more calories than that, but I'd stick to the ones with less than 300 calories.

I don't mind the Premier pre-mixed shakes, but making shakes from the powder is disgusting (for me at least). I've been using Syntrax powders (both traditional powders - chocolate, vanilla, and unflavoured) and Syntrax Nectars (which are like drinking juice) both pre- and post-op. In both cases you get 23g of Protein, 0 carbs, 0 sugars, 100 calories. The nectars I usually mix with just Water, but the powders I mix with unflavoured almond milk (or soy milk), and if I'm using chocolate, I usually add some PB2 Peanut Butter powder and (sometimes) either unflavoured/unsweetened Greek yogurt or half a small block of fresh soft tofu (the latter will make it thick like a milkshake), plus (usually) a banana. On top of that I always add either flax or chia seeds (ground). All those add-ons add to the protein count (often I get between 30-35g, depending on what I use).
Oh - my new favourite smoothie is mixing Syntrax Roadside Lemonade with unsweetened almond milk, and 1/2 cup of frozen raspberries (or other berries) - it's really refreshing in the summertime!

Have you tried adding PB2 (powdered peanut butter) to a vanilla or chocolate shake? I do it with the Unjury shakes.< br>

Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein Vanilla so far tastes the best. It has 24 g of protein 110 calories 2 carbohydrates 2 sugars

Consider using a powder and toss it in the blender with Fairlife Skim milk and some ice to make it like a milkshake. That was one of the things I did. Optimum Gold Whey Protein is 24g of protein in a scoop and 1 cup of FairLife Skim is 13g - so that's 37 grams of protein in 8 ounces - give or take with the addition of the ice.

Have you tried premiere Protein it's 30 grams of protein and aren't horrible there pre-made and have a few different flavors I hope this helps and good luck.[emoji16]

I'm having issues with the protien shakes I don't like none of them tried iconic hated it, tried GNC lean hated it, tried Isopure zero carb hate it

I hate how these post op shakes taste has anyone tried using hallo too ice cream mixed in the shakes... I wanna be able to swallow the shakes but I hate how they all taste helpppppp

How are you guys preparing for your surgery I'm excited and sooo nervous..: I still haven't found a Protein Shake I like [emoji30]... also I wanna return to work like 3 days after I do serenity work sit at desk all day so I don't think I can hurt myself and I do understands walking is very important so might as well right. How are you guys preparing??

You can always try adding to it. I add Greek yogurt and PB fit to my morning Protein breakfast shake, both add extra protein

Isopure has a lot of different flavors. You've tried them all? I'm sipping the espresso flavor as I type this.

So I've tried a few protien shake and hated all except premier salted Carmel and also Quest protien but my nutritionist stated that I'll need more protien than that so far I tried iconic hate it I also tried Isopure don't like it... I'm at wit end cuz my surgery is in 2 weeks help
