Im pretty new so i don't know if this will work for you and maybe u can ask the vets but my doc sed that the pure Protein called New Whey it comes in diff flavors i got the watermelon one they sell it in Walmart it has 42 grams of Protein and is 170 or 180 cal i poured 2 of those in a liter of smart Water which thinned out the thick Syrup taste and wasn't that bad maybe u could try that then ur getting protein and Fluid at the same time

Ok thanks

I think it just comes with time. I am slowly getting my Protein in. I have to switch it up though. Once day I will drink Pure Protein (25g) in Frosty chocolate with Water & then the next day I will have nectar flavored protein. I just get bored easily so I have to switch it up but I can only get in about about maybe 30 grams a day. But I am slowly increasing daily.

I can't do unflavored protein it makes me gag..all the protein shakes I were drinking before makes me gag.. I'm eating Greek Yogurt with 12g..also I found the moo milk at HEB ( not sure if you have one) and it also has 12g... If you try anything else let me know

My favorite Protein Drink is Injury unflavored mixed in to HEB Mootopia skim milk with a squirt of lite chocolate Syrup. Very tasty -have one first thing every morning. Followed by 0% Greek yogurt with little fruit and granola. I use a dash of Truvia and let it sit for awhile to soften the granola.

      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... :(
