Hi. My name is teresa and I had surgery 9.11.13. Went home the next day and am feeling pretty good. Sticking to clear liquids and 1 protien shake a day until my fillow up appointment on tuesday. For the 1st time in ages... I can't wait to gwt on that scale.

My surgery was on 9/3 had a hospital stay of 2 days. Feeling much better but having a little trouble with the protein shakes. Very tired of sweet taste! I am 11 lbs. down and have had no problems. I'm excited to get on the scale too! Good luck to you!

congrats good luck with everything!

I hate the sweet taste too. I am surprised at that as I usually love sweets. Have you tried the unjury chicken flavored or unflavored powder in soups.

Were do you find the protien soups?

Congrats! I will be sleeved in October. I've been trying out different shakes and I hate the sweetness, too. I like to add unjury unflavored to milk with some vanilla. If you add Unjury to soups, don't heat above 140 degrees. I have read that some folks just drink the broth from a can of chicken soup. Good luck!

I found that I could not tolerate the vanilla-flavored Protein post-op. I switched to unflavored whey powder & use sugar-free Torani, DaVinci or Walden Farms syrups for flavor or add it to Crystal Light/Great Value drink mix. I bought some at GNC to get me by while I waited for the 10-pound bag of Now Sports unflavored whey isolate powder I ordered from Amazon. It arrived yesterday, so I haven't tried it yet.

I'm still on clear liquids plus Protein shakes through week 4 post-op. I get to add pureed foods this Thursday. I'm so looking forward to that!
