Post op day 5. Doing really good. Getting all my fluids in. Got in most of my Protein yesterday. But wait.. I'm sick of all this sweet crap. I do like my strained Soups.

So far I've tried muscle milk light, unjory chocalate splendor, various isopures and I hate them. Tooo sweet, no substance just plain Yuck. Pours down drain. What else can I try?

UJURY is the best...believe me I tried everything and spent no telling how much. STILL even with the best tasting shake it gets boring tying to get the Protein in!

My favorite is the ready to drink special K milk chocolate. It has 190 calories and 10 grams of protien. Not the lowest calorie or highest protien but unlike the others it actually tastes good and doesn't get poured down th he sink. I like to mix the shake with a quarter or half cup of low fat milk and a splash of coffee (cuts the sweetness).

I can't get the drinks down at all either. I'm 4 weeks out. Don't know what I'm going to do.

Early on I was able to tolerate Unjury chicken Soup. Just like chicken broth with lots of protein; you can also use it to make mashed potatoes. I was strictly Unjury chocolate Splendor and Unflavored my first few months, then branched out to some Synthrax Nectars and smoothie King Gladiator in vanilla. I make a yummy iced or hot latte with my Kuirig, nonfat milk, a little SF French vanilla Creamer and the vanilla Gladiator. It's not too sweet, and you could do Decaf if its still early days for you. It gets better!! Strive to work toward at least 60+ grams of protein!!

Another vote for Unjury chicken Soup. One scoop is 21g of Protein and I actually like the taste. I make some when I get home from work and drink it from a coffee mug.

      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... :(
