Hi, I am getting ready to have my surgery in a month. I asked my nutritionist if this would work, but she told me that it didn't have enough Protein and too many carbs. Did you ask your dr or nutritionist about this? I'm wondering if she misread the package? Thanks! Can't wait to get started... and if I can use visalus I would be thrilled because it is yummy. Lisa

From what i understand, the Protein is lower but it is better utilized by the body. it does taste great.

I tried it too & it really is the shake mix that tastes like a cake mix. It was SOOO good but my nut says I can't have it either. :(

I was told not to use it pre op only because they wanted me to find a Protein Powder I like... so I didn't use it... darn, because you are right- so delicious! I have not heard of the BSN Syntha-6 isolate, where did you hear about that? Is it a Protein powder? I still need to find a delicious one, because who wants to drink something you don't look forward to???? Seems it will cause you to eat stuff you shouldn't if you don't find something that is more than "tolerable".

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
