I can not consume any Protein Shake or bar. They simply make me sick. I mix 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup cottage cheese, 1/2 cup skim milk, and some sort of Water mix packet. That equals about 38-40 grams of Protein. My nutritionist said my homemade concoction is perfectly fine.

I am 3 months out and have not been able to stomach any sort of Protein. I just got some of the Isopure ready to drink and they are tolerable. Still not something you jump up and run to the fridge for but tolerable. The blue raspberry is the most tolerable.

Hi, I have found that lean, thinly shaved ham is easy to eat as a snack and boosts the protien intake. I am 5 weeks out from surgery and can't stomach eggs still. Does anyone else have a problem with eggs, I used to have them regularly ( pre-op).

I have no problem with eggs.. Pasta tho, as a meal is an issue. I've only tried it once ( with chicken and mushrooms) and it was a no go!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
