I did see those at Walmart today but I didn't get them because it said 3 grams sugar alcohol. I have enough gas all the time that I am afraid to try them now. I like the peanut nougat ones a lot.

I'm only using the Protein Bars when I need a Protein source. When I work a 13 hour night shift, I sleep through lunch and I can only "fit in" vitamins/medications and coffee for Breakfast. I eat the Protein Bar while I'm driving to work.

I was using them for the pre-op diet. I don't have any left and probably won't buy anymore as there are so many other options out there and I don't have the schedule you have.

BTW ... when can I start drinking coffee again? :thumbup:

I started drinking coffee on day 6! LOL. Dr. Aceves LOVES it and told me it would be OK after 5 days for me to have it back. I use the fat free non dairy Creamer and a splenda. He said that was fine. I HAVE to have coffee. LOL.

I LOVE that answer ... I love my coffee too ... I should have asked him about drinking coffee ... instead, I asked him about having sex and he blushed and waved his hands and said "Not here, PLEASE" ... LOL :tea:

He'd probably have preferred I asked about the coffee!

Yes, extremely. I didn't ask Sergio the question about the sex because I thought he'd crawl under the bed from embarassment ... didn't know it would embarass Dr. A as well.

I doubt it was the question that embarrassed him but teasing you about it embarrassed him.

He is sooooo shy.

I have to tell you though he had that response at the ready -- didn't take him anytime to respond ...

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
