  1. Thank goodness I found this group. Today will be 1 week post op for me. I also had a large hiatal hernia repair at the same tme. I was in the hospital 4 days. I've struggled with nausea. I'm proactive now and take my nausea meds regularly. Protein drinks never have bothered me but now the thought of them, yogurt, etc makes me nauseated. I have no issues with Protein 2.0 or jello and they are my go to for hydration and protein. Problem #1 Getting in more than 40 ounces of fluid a day has been nearly impossible so far. #2 Protein 2.0 only has 10 grams of protein. I am barely getting in 30 grams of protein a day. What risks does this run with low protein and what can I do to stay liquid without heavy sweet protein shakes? Today I am going to start walking so I am really needing to figure this out quickly. Thank you all so much. Nervous Newbie Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app
  2. I am sure this question is a repeat but I haven't quite learned this app enough to find what I need yet. Thank you for your patience! The new stomache is small and you can only drink a few ounces every 15 min. What happens if you drink to much water to fast? .

    Sleeve or Bypass... help!

    I have Barretts too. BMI 39 I went through extensive testing with gastroenterologist before being approved for WLS. My recommendation based on multiple physicians and medical universities, Gastric Bypass is the only way to go. Even with sleeve you run risk of continued or exacerbated GERD. With Bypass, my GERD is 100% cured. I used to take 4 nexium everyday. Now, zero. I also read a peer review paper on how with GBP there is a 33% chance of Barrets reversal. One other item to consider. If you ever have Barretts progress or issues, they cannot undo any WLS except Bypass. That was a key component to the choice too. Sent from my SM-G920V using BariatricPal mobile app
