My only struggle day 6 is the protein drinks. Don't like any of them after surgery! Trying to experiment again

I found it hard to find protein drinks I actually liked...i don't like milkshakes or milky products..so it makes it tough to find one. I finally found the most "decent" one is the Isopure Plus. Easy to get down, and the aftertaste is manageable. Has 15g of protein. And no carbs. I got the alpine punch flavor.

I'm in! My surgery date is September 15.

I'm scheduled for September 23. Today is my first day of pre-op prep. Not as hungry as I thought I'd be so I'm happy. I can't wait for the 23rd!!! I am still trying to find a protein drink that tastes good to me. I like the idea of protein that has no flavor at all because I find some to be way too sweet. Glad to be in touch with others in the same boat as me.

Yes it is! I'm trying to stay focused. I know I have it better than some, but I still need to be mindful. I have my preop appointment in the morning. I hope learn a lot.

9/15 here! Sooooooo happily freaked out! LoL Blessings to all:).

Are yall starting your pre op diet 2 or 3 weeks before surgery?

My surgeon required me to start 2 weeks before. Today is day 8 for me...7 days until I get sleeved!

My surgeon required 2 weeks of liquids. Today is day 2...I am soooo ready to do this. Looking forward to not being hungry all the time.

Just had my surgery on Sept.5th at the OCC and am 5 days post op! I feel like I have so much energy at times and then have moments I need to rest. I haven't lost any weight yet and was told by another sleever she didn't in loose the first week. I do feel smaller so I am thinking I am loosing inches. I am getting used to dealing with the head hunger but so great full I have this tool where I can't eat. It's seems to be getting better everyday. Liquids are going down great too:)

What protein drinks are you using? My taste completely changed!

I am using Isagenix...I love it!! I tried the GNC one and it made me sick...I am trying a few others out right now. What are you trying?

I tried unjury and the nectars. Going to try body fortress next I think
