I don't have Vitamins Protein shakes on my liquid/low fat pre-surgery diet. They told me what kind of Vitamins to buy but told me not to take them before surgery. Walmart carries Mussel Milk. It's on my 'safe' list. It's $6.98 for a 4-pack and has 20 grams of Protein. I got the chocolate. It is lactose free and although it contains no milk, it does include milk Proteins.

My surgery is Monday.

Amazon.com carries a ton of different Protein powders. I ordered the FitFrappe( by Big Train). I ordered directly from their website, but its cheaper on Amazon. I make it in the blender with ice and Water and it tastes like a frappacino. 20g of Protein for a shake and its takes awhile to drink.

Did you received a "Guide to Bariatric Surgery" Folder? It has suggestions on Protein shakes, Vitamins, etc...your nutritionist would be a great person to go to for a list. If you can't get it from them let me know and I can email a list. I've used Unjury and it's good and a great price. You can order it online. Go to the official website to look at what they have. They have one that is unflavored...I used it to make Jello Protein Shots. They also have a starter pack of flavor pouches and a shaker cup for around $21.

      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!!
