im excited, but a little nervous. my question right now for you wonderful people is this.. what is the best and most cost effective clear Liquid Protein option for me to try while on my 7 - 10 day clear liquid post op diet? ive read and re read everything they have given me, and i just think instead of eating Jello and broth and diluted juices that i would rather have something i know is good for my body. i just figured that having the Protein wouldnt hurt anything, but since i am impatient and plan on asking about it in the morning i thought some of you may have some advice and insight for me right now. thanks!!!

My doctor recommended Isopure. Got it at GNC. Needed 80 grams of Protein a day, so 2 bottles every day. Did that for 4 days when I got home from surgery. Started full liquids today.

Today is the day!!! Congrats!

Make sure to walk, walk, walk ASAP after you wake up. Moderate pain now saves a lot of pain later.

I think you will find that everyone is different- including your before and after taste-buds. I loved a certain Protein shake before, now I can't stomach it. The good thing is that the liquid diet is only for a week or so, so you'll be ok.

BTW I like Jay Robb whey Protein vanilla. :)

I agree. Before my operation I thought that Premier Protein shakes were pretty decent.

Now they taste like chemicals to me. Blech!

My advice is to just buy a sample of every kind. Unfortunately, I loaded up on these shakes, am now stuck with them (I won't drink 'em), and out a pretty penny.

Good luck and I'd go for Isopure post op as it's got great Protein (40g) and tastes pretty good.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
