Day 2 of liquids- help



Recommended Posts

I'm on day two of my liquid diet.. My dr wanted me to drink Protein Shakes from bariatric advantage... Day one I was fine. Today I cant get the second shake down.. I want to puke and feel so sick.. Is it the drink or just me??? Should I change brands or is just my body going through food withdrawals?? My surgery is Oct' 6, so I have a long way to go.. Any help would be great.. Thanks

I hated those shakes. I switched to Unjury, and I actually STILL drink them 8 months post-op. Yummy.

Hi Kristie Lee: I didn't like them either. I switch to Designer whey Protein in powder form (vanilla flavor). I mix it with fat free milk, and it tastes delish...I still drink it once a day to get some of my protein intake.

Good luck and hold strong!:)

Hi. I drink EAS chocolate Fudge Protein Shakes every morning for Breakfast. I"m a month post opt and I have lost 17lbs. I have noticed that if I take my vitimin or eat or drink anything else before my Protein Shake then it does not taste as good. But if that is the first thing I put in my mouth (besides brushing) in the morning it is delish. It keeps me full till lunch time which is right around 11:30, then the hunger will start kicking in. Good luck to you! The key is just finding a Protein Drink you like, don't make yourself drink something you don't like, there are many out there, I'm sure there is one that will be delish to you!

HATE protien drinks. I drank carnation instant breakfast with skim milk. Haven't touched a protien shake since 1 week post op! Although, ever since I hit my "sweet spot" 4 months ago I am finding it harder to meet my protien goal. Best of luck to you!

Try adding a scoop of Protein powder to it. I use whey/soy combo.. The whey just won't dissolve and tastes gritty. If you use chocolate Carnation and vanilla powder, it tastes pretty good. Kinda like a chocolate malt.

I'm on a 3 week pre-op diet and have to drink TWO Bariatric Advantage drinks a day. I add a bit more than 8 oz of Water (very cold) and use a little Hamilton Beach blender to blend it really well. Then I chug it down fast! lol Seems to work okay.

I would just try different shakes till you find one you like. My dr. gave me a list of different ones to try. There are so many out there that are gross and some that are more tolerable. Good luck! I am 4 days post op and am sort of tired of them too after doing the pre-op and stuff but I like muscle milk light so I just keep on drinking :).

Just order some unjury, its really the best Protein drink available. Give the strawberry a try for a change, its really good and I'm not a big strawberry fan. The chicken Soup drink is a great quick lunch.

I am also on the liguid diet,the first day I wondered if I would be able to tolerate the Protein shakes,it was something about the taste that was not good,so I got a blender and I add just a few drops of vanilla with a few cubes of ice and blend like there is NO tomorrow- and now I enjoy my shakes. Today ,I tried an unflavored pack of Protein shake, added acouple of spoons of banana instant pudding a couple og drops of vanill and 3-4 ice cubes and it was absolutely delicious. I am sitll trying different brand of Protein, but the one that Iam really enjoying right now is unjury --I purchased the started pack and I like them all,but have not tried the chicken yet.

Hi,

I have been drinking the Premier Nutrition shakes from Sams Club. I love them they taste like a yoo-hoo. They have 30g of Protein in each shake. I would give them a try.

Good luck!!

I don't know off the top of my head what brand mine are, they were sullied to me, but they are chocolate. At first I thought they tasted like liquid chalk. I'm on day 8 out of 14 and I'm used to them. Vi actually added some crystal light to them and they are actually yummy. If they were vanilla I think there would be more options to flavor them, but I tried strawberry-orange-banana and then the mixed berry crystal lights. I quite enjoyed them. But then again I'd probably enjoy eating a piece of cardboard right now. It has gotten easier & I'm still sticking to it. Learning that I can go to bed hungry & I still wake up on the morning...it doesn't kill me.

Good luck!

      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.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
