I prefer the premier Protein.. But have never tried the carnation breakfast shakes.. Premier has 30g of Protein, 1 sugar, & 160 calories.. They are really great in taste..

Ibought the shakes from doctors office and don't really care for them too well especially without skim milk

Premier Protein shakes are already made! They come in 11oz containers. I personally like the choc over the vanilla.. They taste great! I sit mine in the freezer and let them get icy.. Yummy! I have heard on this sight if u like coffee u can mix the choc premier Protein with it and they say it taste like a mocha coffee.. Haven't tried it yet, but I'm goin too..

I would recommend to call your dr in the morning about the chest pains.. Jus to be on the safe side.. Could be jus gas pains but I don't want to make that call.. I'm sure your dr can answer that question for you.. He may move your appt up some or Atleast they can give u some info as to y this is happening to you..

Is there anything u eat to help satisfy hunger or doesn't feel like diet food

Not at that stage u r in.. But I will tell you this.. I drank wonton Soup from the Chinese restaurant.. I only drank the soup tho.. It made me feel a lot better.. I practically lived off of that & regular chicken broth the 1st 10 days.. Have u tried sugar free jello.. The cherry is really good. I am on phase 3 now tho.. R u feeling hungry a lot? Because I had a lot of HEAD hunger .. But I have dealt very well with it now.. It will get better as the days go by.

Yes, I am very thankful of this site.. It has helped me tremendously! When I can't sleep at night I jus go read this forum til I fall asleep.. Also I have heard if u stay hungry a lot your dr may wanna put u on something like Prevacid .. I think I heard them say its something to do with acid reflux..

      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.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
