Recommended Posts

I didn't read your post until I just got home and while I was out I went to GNC and you are absolutely right. I got me some samples to try to see if I can find another Protein Shake.< /p>

That young lady was so helpful!!!!

These shakes are about it until I go to the Dr on 12/23 I will be 2 weeks out on that day so hopefully I will be able to start soft foods.

Which Protein Shakes at GNC is everyone liking? My surgery was on the 9th. My staples are out and Im feeling much better in general. I started the Vitamins yesterday for the first time (calcium chews and Bariatric Advantage chewable). So far I've only had cream Soups, Protein shakes and mashed sweet potato. I did stop by Wendys today as I was with my family on the way to a movie and they were hungry. I ate a small condiment packet of sour cream. It was delicious and the perfect size. And free! So yay, theres that. How much weight has everyone lost so far? I'm down 17 pounds since surgery 10 days ago. I thought I would be smaller in the waist as well but I just took measurements and Im actually larger than I was before surgery. Must be the swelling?

Where are your staples. I was also sleeved on the 9th. I don't have any staples except on the inside.

I like optimum nutrition vanilla ice cream.

I love the one called Amplify XL, it looks like proper techno bodybuilder stuff, but it tastes just like a real vanilla milkshake, no nasty aftertaste.

I need to try these two different Protein Shakes. My staples are on my abdomen. 6 holes from the laparoscopic surgery. One or two staples on each hole. I think its quicker than using sutures for the surgeon. How is everyone else from Dec 8/9th doing? Hanging in there?

@@Missy407 I was the 10th and my dr used sutures inside on deep muscle and that one spot has been killing me as it is healing all the other incisions are fine and good to go no pain.I just need this one spot to hurry and feel better

I'm 12/08/15. Healing well, surgeon made 6 incisions, only large one on right side where stomach removed had internal sutures. I am getting in Water and close to Protein, although my new tummy is VERY picky. I cannot do eggs right now, they come right back up, puréed turkey and tuna are working the best right now. Fairlife nonfat milk is my savior right now.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
