I get hiccups after almost every meal. Sometimes it’s just one but sometimes it’s normal hiccups that last for awhile. I’m also STILL learning how much I can and can’t eat. I eat too much more often than I’d like and I end up feeling like there is food in my esophagus just waiting to get into my stomach.

I've been drinking the fairlife core power chocolate shakes (not the performance ones!) the 14 oz, 26g Protein ones and they are quite delicious. When I ordered my vitamins for post op, I found a chicken soup protein shake. I ordered one pouch to try it because I thought it was really strange but it was actually very good so I ordered the larger container of it. Not sure if I can share where I bought it from since it wasn't from here.

This entirely depends on if your insurance covers it or not. I'm having my sleeve surgery on Tuesday and my insurance isn't covering it. I'm paying out of pocket for the whole surgery. Total, it's probably around $25-26k. I know the hospital fee was $23k and then there were a few other charges through my doctors office. The only thing my insurance covered were my tests and nutrition appointments.
