@@adrinanna - do you mix with plain unsweetened yogurt? There are so many brands of yogurt out there - I don't know which to choose. Any suggestions? Thanks, Karen

Right now I'm drinking Atkins shakes, but my nutrionist thinks I should try another Protein shake after my surgery. Has any tried the Syntrax nectar before ? If so any flavor recommendations? Sorry in advance if this has been discussed before :)

I love the fuzzy navel I have been drinking it every day since surgery 2.5 yrs. I have started making it into a jelly. 500ml Water, 3 leaves of Gelatin and a scoop of the Syntrax.

@@adrinanna - I mix a scoop of my flavored Protein (chocolate/vanilla/salted caramel) to about 1/2 cup of plain non fat greek yogurt and stir. Its my version of pudding :D

@2nsleeves26 I am currently drinking Atkis shakes and my surgery is in 2 days. Did he say why he didn't want you drinking them?

she just said they didn't have as much Protein as she'd like me to have post op. Since I'll be liquid for 3 weeks post, she wants something with more Protein and cals. Also I was planning to stop them just because it is much more cost effective to buy a powder protein, I go thru a four pack of those shakes so fast

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
