I'm having my sleeve the 18th and I'm starving' date=' I drank a dietcoke today. I had give them up last week, I was drinking 6 to 8 a day. So we have to drink clear Protein the first 2 weeks? I was going to have broths and Jello. Is the Unjury good? You can drink it warm? Do you flavor it? And with what? I'm going to bring a binder with me to hospital I hear they really help. On my preop I can have 2 Protein Drinks an 2 sugar free jello or Popsicles. It kinda sucks that they don't have many who knows how to stick that tube down your throat without damaging you. Hope u are doing well at this time

I just tried the unjury chicken Soup flavor today and it was disgusting. Don't waste your money. I got that as a sample from my pre-op class. It made my stomach feel really nauseous too.

The Best whey Protein

I came across this at my local Healthfood store. I actually like it alot! No after taste!! I've tried so many that I hated, Unjury, EAS, Akins etc. to name a few. This is called Jay Robb Whey protein. I've had the vanilla, strawberry & Pina Colada. It has 110 calories, 25 Protein grams and 1 carb. I just wanted to share this for anyone who was having trouble finding a tolerable Protein Shake.< /p>

Thanks for the recommendation. I too have tried so many protein powders including the ones mentioned above. I love the Bariessentials Vanilla sold by my Dr. and love it but it is $90 for 35 servings. Will definitely give this a try and save about .70 a serving. I know me if I cant stomach the flavor I just won't stick to it. So it is worth a little extra money.

Here's my solution....Isolate unflavored, Better Than Bullion...heat the broth and add powder. Let sit for about 10 mins for flavors to meld...reheat if necessary

      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... :(
