Alternate to sweet protein shakes??
Hello Oochie, What I saw worked for me is that I would put the protein drink in a cup and mix it with equal parts unsweetened almond milk. I didn't do the unflavored protein but maybe if it's powered you can put it in sugar free pudding, oatmeal or in watered down Gatoraded. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

I think your stomach maybe isn't ready yet. Try again in a couple of days that's what I did and the second time it was fine I actually did the same beans and guacamole. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

I don't know what it is but my stomach did not like the beans at 3 weeks either. I have tried again and they were ok but I didn't have much. Maybe for me it's that I didn't really like beans even before surgery. I am one month post op. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

Oh that's exactly what I'm eating 4-5 times. I was honestly getting worried I was thinking did I even have this surgery. Then I have to remind myself I am eating often but I'm not eating alot. Some days I struggle to get in all my protein even water. I have to keep reminding myself to drink. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

Just like you mentioned incision pain but that to bad. I was having alot of trouble sleeping and on the third day I was constipated (sorry tmi lol!) Other then that I've been doing good thank God. Right now I feel like my weight loss has stalled to I'm trying to stay positive. I know little by little the weight will come off. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

Constipation
I am only 21 days pre op but on day 3 I experienced constipation. I had never ever felt this in my life and I dont want ever feel it again. You know what helped me is a shake I found in a gastric sleeve cook book. Thank God the shake has half a small apple, half pear, five spinach leaves, a slice of avocado, a cup of unsweetened almond milk, 1/3 orange juice. Blend and enjoy it's actually delicious and really helped me. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

I'm glad to read that I'm not the only one who is freezing. I usually didn't get cold easily but now I have to sit right by my heater. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

Approved!!! Finally I got the confirmation!!!
If she is your real friend she will be fine with it. Don't focus on her focus on yourself and on the people who are supportive. Above all you are what is important it sounds selfish I know but sometimes it has to be like that especially if its something so positive for you. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

Another thing people sometimes make you think twice because they are scared and don't understand the whole process. The more information they get the easier it will be for them to be supportive. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

Approved!!! Finally I got the confirmation!!!
My best advice for that is just don't listen to the negative. I will be honest I did not tell to many people because I did not want negative comments or anyone to talk me out of this amazing change in my life. The few people I did tell were amazingly supportive. Just keep thinking of your health and all the amazing things you will be able to do after. Like I said I am only 17 day post op but I don't regret what I did i know my health is the most important thing. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app

Trust me i was super nervous but thank God I have an amazing fiance and support system. I personally prayed alot but everyone has there own way of calming down. The actual day of my surgery I just did my best to relax and I was quiet most of the morning and just took alot of deep breaths. Not gonna lie I cried a bit before going into the operating room but the nurses and Dr were amazing with me. Another fun fact I had never had surgery so I felt extra scared but thank God everything came out great. Sent from my SM-G920T using BariatricPal mobile app
