Recommended Posts

So I see people having an issue getting in there Protein.. im using Isopure whey Protein powder it has 50mg of protien 1 carb and no sugar it comes in the same flavors as the isopure Liquid Protein drinks. One serving gives you 50mg of protein if any one wants to know.

That sounds like a great way to get in your Protein but you should split it up over 2 meals because your body typically cannot absorb that much protein at one time. But if you split it you will get the full benefit.

I am 9 days post op. I am having two shakes a day at 35g of Protein each. I am consuming the Premiere Protein Shakes with two TBSP of PB2.

I also have Isopure, but I have trouble with the flavor right now.

Just so you know, the bodies inability to process more than 19-27g of Protein at a time has nothing to do with the surgery. Right now you are consuming 200g Protein, and only utilizing about 1/2 of it. Not that that's necessarily a bad thing. But you are consuming double the calories you need to for he limited benefit.

This is the protein my surgeon has me on and sell in there office.. considering the fact that I work nights I sleep in the day.im not up in the day to consume the necessary calories for this liquid diets taking in the account that im on 2000 mg of metformin the higher calorie whey protien is whats best for me. It has about 220 calories im only drinking 3 shakes a day which is 680 Water Powerade zero no calories in that. Two s/f jellos which has 10 and a cup of low sodium broth which leaves me under 720 calories.

      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?
