My name is Tammi and I saw my doctor today. I got a surgery date of this Monday the 8th at noon. I am so nervous/excited! I have labs in the morning and I am on my preop diet as of tomorrow morning. Things got a little rushed up because of my work/school schedule and thankfully my dr. is obliging me! Its been a long time of being sick and tired all the time. I look forward to finally being free from this body and able to really live again! I have over a hundred pounds to loose and I cant wait to start! Anyone know of a tasteless Protein Powder to mix in things. I dont like chocolate and I just want an unflavored one that is not gritty. Thanks!

Congratulations on your surgery date. I'm sure you're excited and nervous all at once.

Regarding unflavored Protein power, all I've heard of is unjury. Lots of people here love it. I was always able to use the flavored ones with no problem, so I only tried it once mixing with broth and it was pretty lumpy. But the Soup was probably too warm, which is something you have to watch. There are tons of Protein powders out there in fruit flavors, etc. so don't feel like you have to eat unflavored just because you don't like chocolate.

I drank the ready-made Isopure drinks. They're clear, so no grit and come in fruity flavors. My favorite was the grape - tasted a bit like watered down Kool-Aid. If you have a Vitamin Shop near you buy a few to taste-test and take back those you don't like and you can get a full refund. I did that several times and never had a problem.

Best of luck!

      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.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
