You haven't given us much to go on. But im suspecting your dealing with lots and lots of diarrhea. If your only consuming all liquids, its all going to come out the same way.

Sorry your having a tough time.

There are many types of Protein, just make sure it is Protein isolate.

Hemp, pea, eggwhite, soy...

burping and sneezing means there is too much in your stomach. when your stomach is too full it irritates the vagus nerve at he top of the stomach and you sneeze. try drinking slower and give your stomach some time to empty.

I agree, those are signs of too much in your stomach. Take smaller sips. It might take 30 minutes to get a shake down at this stage.

I had the same problem, certain things just couldn't do post op, so I have to switch my Protein Shakes and so on. Prior to surgery I was all for Premier Protein and then right after surgery I just couldn't do it. I have now switched to EAS which I get from target in a four pack and they have a variety of flavors. There was a list of changes following surgery, but never a regret. 6 months post op and down over 120 from day of surgery. Wishing you nothing but the best and please keep us posted!

Following surgery couldn't do 1% milk with my Ovaltine and had to switched to lactaid skim milk and I've been able to handle that perfecto. Hope this helped.

Try Platinum Hydro whey. It's a hydrolyzed whey isolate which is super easy to absorb. It's 30gr per serving and can be taken with H2o. The only down side is that since the uptake is so easy it doesn't leave you satisfied for very long. I take it with milk just so it stays it my stomach longer. Or with Water and a splash of half and half to improve the taste.

Milk is not my friend after surgery. Mixing powdered Protein with milk made my stomach hurt. I've switched to ready to drink Protein Shakes - Premier Protein or Atkins shakes.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      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!!
