Protein Shots? Has anyone tried them? Well I brought some from Amazon. They are 26grams in 2.9oz. The taste is not too bad. It has no carbs, no sugars, no fat and 120 calories. Since I brought them im able to get all my Protein in daily. Tomorrow I start pureed foods, which gives me a different variety to get protein in that way. Hope all is well sleevers and enjoy the rest of the day!

I tried one from Walmart. It's not all whey protein, but still enough to be good. My Dietician looked at it for me. She said it looked good, but there were two kinds of protein. She said to ensure it has the best form of protein, whey.< /p>

I did see those also, I'm going to try them this weekend. Thanks for that info. I did look at mine and it contains whey.

I tried some from Walmart too. My favorite is the watermelon flavor.

I liked them before the surgery and cannot force myself to drink them now. They have turned on me and I get instant diarrhea that will last for a good two hours. All my Fluid intake heads right out the back door! Leaving me in a negative. I'm not even sure the Protein stayed in my system of if it hightailed too.

Oh I'm glad you posted this! I haven't tried them post Op. My tummy is so sensitive. Plus I'm not a fan of vomiting. I feel like I'm the only one on here that isn't jumping for joy. My tummy still aches after 10 days. My doc says it's the nerves, but I'm so sick of taking the medicine they gave me. It puts me into a deep slumber. Although I do like that, but I feel like my life is slipping away.

I was nauseous until I hit three weeks out from surgery. Keep taking your meds, and all of a sudden you will feel better one day.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
