My date is April 9th :-)

Also Isopure has like 40g of protein and is thinner than New Whey. I thought it was gross preop but I like it OK now. It's at GNC and the Vitamin Shoppe.

Thank you! I will look into both!

You're welcome. Of course you can find both on Amazon.

Just got my surgery time. I have to be there at 5:30am. I'm the first surgery case scheduled for 7:30am on Monday. Wowzers......

Boarding the plane right now will be in surgery tomorrow

Good luck. Have a safe trip.

Hi everyone! i am 5 days post op! i started at 268 i am 248 today. took my first shower and removed the gauze. i am not hungry at all but i miss the sensation of chewing. Things smell funny and sorbets taste super sweet. i couldn't stomach jello yet. is anyone else having serious gas pains? its like in my chest and everytime i pass gas it seems internal or i am going to poop myself i know too much info but its strange!! i feel achy and sore, its hard getting p from sitting position but its manageable. im still taking liquid Percocet for pain but instead of every 4 hours i am doing every 7 hours to stretch it out. i am sleeping on the couch w hubby bc i can't lay down yet. i have been walking everyday- i walked an hour yesterday i think i overdid it. any advice or things i should prepare for? lol hope everyone is doing great! sorry i was MIA for a few days- between surgery and my mom had a stroke it has been a long week.

any advice???

Good luck. Have a safe trip.

Thank you almost there at layover right now

I am having the same issue .. The gas pain ! I have been walking and taking Pepcid and gas x and that helps a little. I can feel the gas moving but if doesn't come out idk weird , jello makes my stomach hurt and I throw up , not only that I got my aunt flow the next day after surgery ughhhh so I am dealing with two type of pains lol but other then then that I am doing ok I am walking and I took a shower and that felt good OMG like I was in heaven lol

What's your favorite flavor ? I tasted the grape and was ok

I like the green apple. The peach mango is OK too.

I am only allowed clear liquids and skim milk for my protein for the first two weeks post op. I talked to my surgeon because I'm really having trouble getting in the skim milk because I've always hated milk (was allergic to it as a child). He said for me, for the first two weeks, my focus should be on getting enough fluids in and staying hydrated. My stomach has been a gurgley mess but I'm getting fluids in. But I am starting to worry about what kind of effects this very low protein will have on me after 2 weeks. But I guess he knows best. I'm getting in my vitamins for the most part so hopefully it will be ok. I tried one of those clear New Whey Protein shots that you can get at Walmart. They are clear and 42 g protein so I thought I'd try it. It is so gross but I figure it's better than no protein so I'm slowly choking it down. Any other suggestions for protein on a clear liquid diet?

I survived on isopure -it counts as a clear liquid and tastes like Gatorade

Also, I bought unflavored protein powder at whole foods and mixed it into snapple -just tasted like diet snapple!

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I will get some Isopure tomorrow!!
