Recommended Posts

I am using Protein powder mixed with lactaid ff milk 8 oz. I FORCED myself to have it this morning. took 1.5 hrs to get it all down! I have a good liquid mtv- its cherry flavored and i gagged last night when i took my 2nd dose! I am just becoming so sensitive to all this sweet stuff! It is really makingme gag! And the last thiing I want to do is Puk! Today is Post Op day # 5, Last night again, I had gas pain that would not move down & out! Not until 7:30 this morning! And I did walk around last night trying to help it along its way. Could not finish my last Protein Drink last night, even the chix broth with unflavored pp is horrible! I am going to look for the Protein Shots, at least it will be small amounts. Although i do need the Calcium provided by the milk. Who know's, like I said I am having a talk with my Dr. today at my follow up. Thanks for all the input fellow bandsters.

I am 10 days post op and also am sick of the sweetness of Protein Drinks. I have tried Carnation Istant BF and they are a bit milder in taste. Actually can tolerate them pretty well. I mix powder with 1 cup of FF milk and it totals 15 g. Protein. Put ice in blender and tastes kind of like a milkshake....not too sweet. Hope this helps. CAT

Thanks Cat, I actually went to dr and they told me to try Isopure. i stopped and got some, they are not too bad, "to me" it is a welcomed taste when diluted with Water. Not overwhelmingly sweet at all and no milk base!! I actually have some Carnation IBF, I will try that also. Thanks for the input.

I gotta say I am liking the sound of taking Protein shots. Where can I find "Liquid Protein" Justmermp? This would be a great way to sneak in some Protein on days when I need a little extra.

I picked them up at the Vitamin Shoppe. They come is various brands and flavors.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
