I don't use the powder, I use the premade .. maybe make it the night before and let it settle? I also eat the bars but only one a day.

I have the premier powder. Made one shake and it was too frothy. Do you think ice would help?

Ice may help or if you want to feel like a dessert freeze it and eat it with a spoon like a Wendys frosty!!! I nevee liked the powders either only premade ones.

I was sleeved on 4/13 and I had a similar experience. No pain, except gas pain. Man, that was brutal for about 5 days. I'm 2 weeks post-op and anxious to have my ONE EGG Haven't tried the Premier Protein shakes, though... the carbs scare me. I'm already 30 lbs down. Don't want to derail myself!!

I was able to have scrambled eggs, chopped lean meats, low fst cheese and homemade salsa yesterday. The carbs in Protein Shakes isnt that bad. Your body has to have some carbs for energy and to function. The biggest thing you want to watch is the sugar alcohol grams.

Hi I was sleeved on the 17th too, I only vomited that night and had crazy gas pain. I still forced myself to walk and I was able to get released the next day. I been feeling great and down 17lbs since my surgery except I constantly have the burps! Does anyone else get this? The second I eat or drink I get such bad gas pain and I start burping like crazy! Also I can't take the shakes/broth anymore and I have another week and 1/2! I been on a liquid diet for almost 4 weeks now. The smells and the thought of having another shake/broth is outright repulsive. I don't want any bad food I just want chicken or a salad.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
