  1. I am in my second week of post op liquid and the ONLY protien drink I can stand is the premixed, bottled Ispopure at GNC. It looks and tastes almosr like vitamin water. 90 grams of protien per bottle.
  2. Thanks for your reply. Is blended frit allowed in the liquid stage?
  3. Thanks so much to all of you who responded. I thought I was totally prepared for this - three weeks without real food? No big deal! But it is a huge emotional and physical adjustment. It feels good to know I'm not alone. Today I found an Isopure protien drink at GNC that is clear and actully tastes pretty good - almonst like vitamin water. Getting something other than water and chicken broth into me seems to have helped some, as has chewing gum - but I still can't wait to eat something substantial!

    I know exactly what you mean. I am on day 6 and am so unhappy. I know this is mostly emotional, but I Sooo want to eat a real, healthy meal.
  5. :party: Hi everyone. This is my first post, and I am hoping for some guidance. I was banded on 7/7/08 and have been incredibly depressed ever since. My surgeon says that surgery went well, but I have had alllergic reactions to ALL of the pain meds prescribed, so have taken only tylenol. Beyond that, I just feel uncomfortable in my own body. I am not hungry, but I am having an awful time with the idea that I can't eat. I am craving healthy foods, but am still restricted to liquids for another 10 days and I hate every kind of protien shake/drink I have tried. I know this is emotional and, though I expected it, I am just so unhappy. Any advice??
