How many grams of Protein does your preop shake have in it? I have been using Herbalife b/c it tastes better, but it only has 9 grams per shake. I don't think I am getting enough protein.

That is not very much.

My powder has 22 and I add it to skim milk which has 8 so I have 30 grams.

I have one every morning and it gets my day started with a good amount of Protein.

If you like premixed, the Premier Protein that is advertised on here is good and has 30 grams.

I use 1.25 scoops of Jillian Micheals and that gives me 22 plus 3 for milk (only use a little) so about 130 cal/25 protein/7 carbs

I use Optimum Nutrition and it has 24g (I think) I know it's up there, and use 1 1/2 scoops, so right off the bat I get 36g every morning. And they have tons of flavors but you can't. BEat chocolate! LOL

My Protein Powder is 24 grams of Protein for 120 calories. If you make it with fat free milk you're adding about another 8 grams for 90 calories. Sounds to me like your current product does not have enough protein.

I use an unflavored Protein mix (bought at gnc) and Water with crystal light (tropical punch). It tastes like a smoothie. 125 calories, 24 grams of protein.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
