  1. I have found that vitamin water zero qnd mio liquid drops have been my best friend. I also bought bariwise sugar free hot chocolate. 15 g of protein in only 8 ozs of water. Today I made two packets in 16 ozs of water. Meaning I got 30 g protein in andd 16 ozs of liquids so that is a great way to go of you're sick of shakes.
  2. My surgery was March 23rd 2021. Down 21 pounds today.
  3. My surgery was on March 23rd, making today a week since surgery. Down 12 lbs since surgery as of this morning. I am just looking for suggestions and here to help anyone I can also. I have found a lot of my supplements on this site. I bought the wild cherry calcium which I had a hard time with so I switched over to chewable caltrate instead and that is much smaller and settles in my new little sleeve well. I use Fairlife protein shakes that are 30 grams protein and they go down okay, a little sweet since surgery. But I have had a little intestinal upset from them. I also have IBS which they hoped this surgery might help settle but no luck so far. I do have herbalife as an option but am wondering if anyone else has experience with that after surgery or if they found a protein shake that they liked after surgery? I'm also looking for any drink mixes that have protein added like fruit punch or fruit flavored? I did try one of Premier protein drinks but was not a fan of the flavor before surgery, may be okay after but haven't dared to try. I have been able to eat Greek yogurt fine but slowly. Also some sugar free pudding. Chicken broth has been amazing and the other night I tried wonton soup broth from my local Chinese restaurant and that was an amazing change up from the usual. Hope this helps some of you too.
