  1. I had a bad bm after I had a very sweet protein shake I think my stomach wasn't ready for. Lean shake cookie butter flavor but I think its more for down the line not right after surgery. Great taste tho and its a limited edition flavor so ill just save it.
  2. I've been hearing about these ricotta bakes I would the recipe from some one to try it out myself.
  3. No haven't had any heart burn thank God. I'm just starting to make shakes with Greek yogurt and ice and extracts a little better way to get down the shakes with my nutri bullet.
  4. I'm actually having cravings is this normal I can't wait until get cleared for puree soft foods because I'm so over these liquids for 2 weeks smh. I see my Dr on Tuesday I pray he clears me I want a egg so bad
  5. I can't wait to get to that fish stage lol
  6. Had my surgery Oct 26th came home the 28th. I never had a drain my Dr covered my stitches with water proof gel I could take a shower as usual just couldn't rub the area. The gel is still on as of now it falls off on its own.
  7. It is normal my surgery was Oct 26 and I just made 2 bm for the first time today I was starting to get nervous too. You'll feel better and more like your coming to normalcy once you do.
  8. I have protein hot chocolate and protein soup as well but sometimes I just don't want it.
  9. Yes the nausea is usually from the anethesia it will go away my surgery was Oct 26 I went home on the 28th and I was fine. My struggle is getting on the liquids that's required down they want me to to 48 oz of liquid and 70 of protein but I'm usually at 45 of protein and 45 of liquids including my popcicles.
  10. Yes go all the way to the top right corner and in the 3 lines its in the menu
  11. I'm so over these liquids hopefully my Dr clears me for puree on Tuesday ?
  12. Well I use 8 oz of water oppose to the 6 oz and make sure it's very hot water and you have to stir it for a while to make sure the powder fully dissolves mine wasn't grainy at all.
  13. You guys know u can get a variety of soups from the bariatric store on this site they have cream if chicken cream of tomatoe cream of mushroom the thing about it its not your average cream soup its very watered down so its fine to go towards your liquid and protein intake. They have 15gms of protein. That's wat I've been eating or drinking lol and haven't had any problems. It gives you a variety instead of the basic chicken broth.
  14. Yep when they say wait at least 20 minutes they was right
  15. Plain water for me is horrible now I drink my protein water way more tolerable
  16. I would probably see if they have a low sodium one the sodium on that is kinda high 850mg
  17. I don't feel hungry just the need to chew
  18. Is it me or my mind I'm 6 days post op and I'm already tired of these liquids and wish I could just chew on something already.
  19. I'm 8 days including 2 day pre op 6 days post op 13lbs so far
  20. Yes that's true also they say the vitamin content isn't as high as the pills or chewables
  21. I was told to start before surgery but I didn't start until right after. I just want to get the routine of them its a lot plus whatever previous meds I was already taking.
