I go in at 5:30am and surgery is at 7:30am! Just gotta get through this whole day of my clear liquids!

Right! I’ve gone through so many jars of pickles! Lol...probably too many! [emoji57]

Thank You! I’ll keep ya updated!

Thank you! It’s exciting! I will definitely keep everyone posted! Yours isn’t that far away...Have you started your pre-op diet yet?

Tomorrow Morning! The pre-op diet has gone good. I had some issues on Friday...but made it through decently. But for today when I can only have clear liquids all day and that’s it...I feel completely fine with it. How bout you?

It’s been nice having people to talk too! You can get other people’s ideas and experience.

I’m having the Sleeve done. I actually go in tomorrow morning at 5:30am to get it done!

Iv had a few surgeries in my life. All we’re fixing things I broke or tore playing football. So I’m used to the surgery part. But for some reason this surgery I’m the most on edge about for some reason.

Mine has Whey Protein Isolate, Whey Protein Concentrate, Micellar Casein Protein and Potassium Caseinate Protein

I’m noticing that the Premier Protein is a popular protein for people. Is that because it’s usually a RTD? Ready To Drink

Iv drank so many different kinds of protein drinks over many years...Iv become so used to the typical protein taste! It pretty much sucks! Lol I started drinking protein when I was in the 9th grade...that was like ugh 22 years ago! So I have seriously probably tried 100’s of different kinds of protein over those years....My #1 conclusion...there is yet to be a protein drink that I can honestly say...”Wow, this is so good I could drink it all the time” LOL! So I’m always looking for others and interested in what other people like. Side Note-Some flavors of Isopure RTD Protein Juice/Water is actually pretty good. It’s just so freaking expensive!

That’s something I haven’t heard about. I understand the not being able to sleep on stomach...Which stinks cause I’m a stomach sleeper.

That’s good news. Cause I just want to be able to get up right away and start moving.

That’s awesome! You seem to be doing great! Yeah I’m not looking forward to being hooked up to that iv machine the whole time...but I guess I’ll have too...Lol. Were you able to move around at all right after surgery? Thanks for the heads up. I’ll make sure to stay on top of my pain and nausea.

How are you doing? Feeling ok? How many nights did you have to stay in the hospital?

Cool, Im gonna check that protein out!

My Max Muscle Flavors are.... Cinnamon Roll Peanut Butter Chocolate Blueberry Cake Batter Gonna buy Orange tomorrow!

I think everyone’s go too is chocolate and vanilla. Iv always had that for years and got tired of it. Almond milk isn’t that bad...And this is coming from a guy who normally drank Vitamin D milk with my kids all the time!

I’m currently taking Max Muscle Pro Elite Protein. I drink it with Unflavored Almond Milk. It’s amazing stuff! I have 4 different flavors I drink. It’s nice to be able to switch it up! Max Muscle makes their protein in many different flavors and they all taste pretty good for being protein. powder mixes really good too! Even mixes good with water! So what is everyone else on. Brand? Flavor? Does it taste good or nasty?

I have ISO-Pure Unflavored Protein and I put it in everything. You just have to get past the chalky protein taste and it’s.....Ahhhh...not bad! Lol I even did it before my pre-op diet! When we had chili for dinner, my kids out a scoop of cheese in their chili...I’d put a scoop of protein! [emoji1320]

I plan on doing the same! Cut out carbs and sugar! I’m gonna make my own diet....Ketopaleo diet! Lol! There is probably one already but it’s fun to put the words together. Lol. Just PROTEIN PROTEIN PROTEIN AND MORE PROTEIN...With a side of Protein!

Maybe it’s the Premade stuff that’s bothering your stomach? Iv always found the RTD protein to be different than the powder you mix yourself.

Welcome everyone!!

Wow that’s not good! Iv heard of a few people that have had whey allergies. They would throw up or run straight to the bathroom after drinking it. Have you said anything to your doctor about it? You can get other Protein that isn’t whey protein.
