Hello,

I had surgery on the 26th. I haven't had pain meds since the 27th not any nausea meds feels like I'm doing fine.

Monday not so much I was confused as to what I did I felt horrible I was mad at my self for even thinking this was a good I idea. I could not drink Water cause it hurt. Protein drinks were also a no go.

Today, I'm feeling better I have lost 18lbs I'm trying to get all my fluids in and drinking at least two instant Breakfast for Protein. I can only drink room temp Water and I can indulge in sf popsicles.

broth is going well, little boring so I just got Soups and have strained than out to just drink the broth.

I hear Isopure is a good source of protein has anyone tried it?

Here's to going into week 2

Hang in there, I had a terrible time getting my Protein Drinks down. I really like the Protein drinks from costco, premiere protein.

Thank you,

I actually have those, they are you thick for me and I was told that it maybe to much Protein at one time for me??

It is so difficult at first to swallow most anything but it will get easier. I tried the Isopure and hated it. I tried a couple of flavors and it was so bad I just could not drink it. I prefer the Premier Protein drinks. The first couple of weeks the most important thing is getting in the fluids. Don't be overly concerned about the Protein, it will be easier to swallow protein once the swelling goes down in your new tummy. Try the Unjury... you can order the sample case that has a little bit of everything in it and its high in protein and its quite tasty.

My surgery was 3/25. Look up Chike Protein Shakes. Like Unjury, you can also order a sample of the flavors that they offer. I've tried ISO-100, Unjury & Chike. Chike is BY FAR the best to me... Plus they mix with Water :)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
