Recommended Posts

I had the same problem!!! I did however drink carnation sugar free vanilla my doctor suggested. And I can add my vanilla Protein Powder to cold coffee, milk, ice, and a sprinkle pumpkin pie spice. I also like Atkins cafe Carmel. Good luck. These have been the hardest part other than Vitamins. Can't stand them post op. Make me vomit also

I've tried a bunch at first I did one Premier Protein RTD chocolate and one Isopure, I'm struggling with Isopure these days and just actually asked if I could dilute it! Maybe try a few more kinds. I still find those Premier ready to drink feel best on my sleeve and don't have a nasty taste!

I do not have difficulty getting fluids/protein supplements down 5 weeks post op. For those that do, there is new product recently out there. At walgreens there is probalance Protein shot XL... It contains 28 grams of protein in 3 oz, which is nearly unheard of... This may benefit those who can only get small amounts . You can also goigle search item and find it.

I understand it to Bethe way the protein will break down and absorbs in your system. There is alot more to it but can't remember every thing. Designer whey and champion make very tasty

I tried a new thing today. I did 1 cup milk, 1 scoop Unjury vanilla Protein powder, 1 tsp vanilla flavoring, and 2 tbsp great value natural pb. Used a handful of ice and blended. Tastes like pb shake. Can def do this!!! And was surprised how little sugar was in pb. Less than in my premixed shakes.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      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! 😞
