Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled for 1:15pm on Monday. A little nervous but ready to go. Anyone have a suggestion for a good Protein shake/brand? I really have never liked any I have tried over the years. Also anyone else having one next week?

So far Premier Protein is my favorite. Sometimes I add flavorings to mix things up a bit. Things like PB2, Stevia, unsweetened cocoa powder, vanilla extract, Decaf instant coffee.< /p>

I'm June 8 too! I have tried WonderSlim, Celebrate, and Bariatric Advantage. I really like the first 2 but Bariatric advantage is ok too. I've tried the chocolate, vanilla, cheesecake, and cinnamon roll flavor sand have been surprising good. Since I've been on my period-op diet for 2 weeks, have tried quite a few of them.

My surgery is on 6/9. I've been on a liquid diet for the past two weeks which has consisted of Protein shakes and chicken broth. The DR sold me Fortify BariEssentials. It's actually pretty decent. They also gave recipes to change it up abit. My favorite is to add Decaf coffee grounds. I heard powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury is also good.

Good luck to all of you that had your surgery! Unfortunately I had to postpone mine. My back went out on Wed. night and can't walk, etc. very well and will have an injection Thursday. Hope I can get rescheduled in 2-3 weeks. This has been a very hard, depressing day. The forum is motivational when I read all of your victories.

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!
