5 days post op report

I had my sleeve on July 16th. They found a hernia that needed repair also, so I figured my recovery would take a bit longer. I went home 1 day after the procedure on liquid pain meds. I had to take them every 4 hours the first and second day home. The taste from the pain meds made me sick so I switched to children's Tylenol. Today, I woke up pain free. Feeling good! Gas pains have lessened. Just trying to get in all my fluids. I found Hood Skim Milk for 10 grams of Protein and it is a treat! Today, I am mixing in Isopure with Crystal Light to get in more protein.

Never heard of this brand milk...where can I find this? Also looking for different unflavor whey that tastes like not protein whey..any suggestions? ? I'm gagging on mine! Keep up good wrk..don't rush it I had hernia repair also...ruff last few wks...

Hood skim milk is available at Publix.

Should of known not up here u sound like ur in Fl. ..

I heard that Hood milk is sold at Walmart too... although I haven't been out shopping yet.

My nurse called Isopure "isopuke" I will have to agree with her.

I have been doing the unjury chicken broth (21 g Protein) and adding a little tomato or beef bullion to mix up the flavor a bit.

There is a trick to it though.. mix it while it is cold. Then microwave or 15 seconds, stir, repeat... until hot... Or you end up with some yucky stuff.

Where's up here? I'm in NY and Hood milk is in my small stores, like local deli's. Good luck!

Up here is southern Ohio!!
