Any February Surgery Dates...



Recommended Posts

I have tried several different Syntrax Nectar Protein Shakes. I've tried Syntrax Nectar's chocolate truffle, fuzzy naval, and the Cappuccino. I love the chocolate truffle shake the best. I mix it with unsweetened almond milk. It's so good. It taste like the real thing. I used unsweetened apple juice with the fuzzy naval. It was okay, but I'm not too keen on the taste. The cappuccino was good with unsweetened almond milk. I like your idea of mixing it with real coffee. I'll have to try it. Thanks.

Its okay to be scared. I'm scared too. It is surgery. I'm also excited and looking forward to life after surgery. Just know your not alone. Reading and participating in these forums help. We're all going through this together.

Feb 8th an very scared ????

I'm Feb 8, too! I go in at 5am, and I'm the second case for that morning. It's okay to be scared-it's completely normal ????. You are getting ready for the final part of this journey. Your new life and the road to a healthier you is about to begin!! I can just guess all the thoughts going through your mind--because my mind is like those super 6-lane highways where everyone is trying to merge and all the traffic is driving 75-100mph ????. Nerve racking and crowded to say the least. And, on the flip side, there is probably a part of you that is excited, has a little "rush" of adrenalin, and is ready to just go ahead and get on that highway. As so many have said, you're not alone, ever. Reach out no matter what, and someone will be ready to respond. I've met/read several others in these forums that are Feb 8, and all the other dates of Feb too. We are going to be fine. Slow and steady wins the race! I wish you only the best! When you wake up, your new life awaits ????

I've been waiting for someone like you to post about Syntrax. I ask about it a couple of times in the correct forum/conversation, but I think the posts kind of went a different way, so I didn't re-ask ????. (Didn't want to seem rude)

I've got the Fuzzy Navel and Lemonade. I thought it would help me get both Water and Protein in at same time. I was also gifted a tub of Peanut Butter cookie and the Truffle. In happy to hear you like them too!! ????.

I use the Latte everyday, and I put coffee in mine also. I'm a coffee gal, so even though we have to go Decaf, I try to make it seem and taste as REAL as possible...Ha Ha Ha!!! So glad you posted. If you have any ideas on blending or adding to your Nectars, is love if you shared ????????????!! Thanks again.

I want to try lemonade and grape next. I order them from Amazon.com. They have a wide variety of flavors available. You just have to remember one packet of Syntrax is 4 servings per package. Only 6 grams of protein per serving, to get my required amount of protein per serving I add an unflavored Protein powder to the mix.

I got the approval from my insurance today. I'm so happy. My surgery is the 18th. I start the liver shrinking diet on the 10th. I'm cleaning out my refrigerator and cupboards.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
