So during one of my many attempts to lose weight before decoding on surgery I did the Protein shakes/meal replacement shakes ViSalus. They taste great. Has anyone used this as their Protein Shakes for before/after surgery? I still have a few bags left of it and I love the taste.

I love them better w/ unsweetened almond milk' date=' 1/2 a banana and Splenda. I dont like it plain w/ unsweetened Soy milk. I've lost 21 lbs so far on Visalis. How do you make yours?[/quote']

I have so many recipes that I like. I got stuck at 14 lbs and then quit. I do the butterfinger one, banana nut bread, blueberry pie, Oreo. Skim milk and almond milk are my fav in the shakes. Never tried the soy.

Like you I have a few bags left over from a previous weight loss attempt. I enjoy the taste of this product a lot. My fave is 2 scoops of visalus, a teaspoon of instant coffee grinds like tasters choice, teaspoon of chia seeds and 2 teaspoons of PB2. It's a go to favorite of mine.

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.
