I Can't Drink One More Protein Shake!



Recommended Posts

Yes you will. I stopped at about 1 month out. I couldn't take it anymore lol. I was sleeved July 17, 2012 and have lost a total of 65 pounds so far. Eat healthy- eat Protein first and exercise. You will be just fine :-)

I am 4 weeks post op. When I saw my NUT at my 2 week appointment, she told me no more Protein Shakes during the day. The only time I should have one is if it is almost bed time and I have not gotten my 80grams of Protein in yet. All my protein needed to be from food.< /p>

Thats actually a nice healthy change but I will say...80g's? I'd never make it without a shake. I have trouble getting 60 in (my goal). I don't like the things, but I still have to use a half scoop or so daily to get myself up to close to 60.

I havent touched them since about a month out they nauseate me now. If you can get your Protein through food my NUT said to stop.

I have a hard time getting 80 in. I had no energy at my last appointment so she told me to try to get to 80 grams a day. Most days I get around 70. I add cheese to everything that I can. I feel like all I do is eat, even though it is not very much at a time. Sometimes I just get tired of eating. Who would have ever thought I would say that!

      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!!

        So proud of you Cat. Getting into those smaller size clothes is half the fun isn't it?. Keep up the good work!!!!

      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... :(
