I'm 9 days post op. I've noticed I tend to not drink my 2 ounces of Protein because I feel full for 2 to 3 hours after. I would rather sip Water all day. I've only been getting about 4 to 6 oz of protein a day so I can drink water. I feel like I'm always thirsty

Try the Isopure clear Protein Drinks. I have never tried them and from what I have read here you either love them or hate them. You can get them at Vitamin Shop, they are expensive but you need some Protein. Hydration is crucial at first but soon enough you will have to increase your protein.

I've tried every flavor and they are disgusting. I've tried unflavored Protein and gag.

Syntrax Nectars mixed with Water are much lighter and less filling than the usual Protein drinks. They come in a variety of flavors.

I got through that phase with the Syntrax Nectars mixed with Crystal Lite Lemonade.

I'll look into Syntrax. I'm fine with the taste of my Protein but they are just so heavy and I worry about dehydration last Tuesday I was almost admitted back into the hospital.

I love Syntrax Matrix with Water and sweetened almond milk (4 ozs each). The flavors are good and they aren't thick like many of the Protein shakes I've tried. And, they have lots of Protein.< /p>

Try Isopure, and mix it with something. I have used Crystal Light, G2, and Iced Tea. I cut it in half, so 1/2 a bottle, or 10oz of Isopure, with 10oz mixer. 20g of Protein, and 20oz fluids!! I sip it all day, adding ice as I go. I have only tried Grape Frost, and Iced Tea Lemon.

The reason I'm here is that there is no such thing as "to sweet". Lol

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
