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

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
