I get sleeved in a week



Recommended Posts

I am going to go to the store tomorrow and get appropriate foods for weeks 1-4. I am going to try and make the best of it. I love Jello, milk and yogurt so it shouldnt be that bad. I found Premier Protein shakes on Amazon. Anyone have any thoughts on Premier Protein Drinks?

Congrats! I'm just ahead of you, 5/7. My pre-op and post--op seems so different from anyone else's. I bought my Premier Protein today but I won't start that until the 2nd week post op. It's only Clear Liquids now until surgery. Then I can add Protein Water for the first week post op. Wish I could help but I haven't tried the Premier Protein yet.

I like Premier Protein compared to many other shakes I’ve tried. It still takes a moment to get used to it. One reviewer mentioned that the Premier Protein chocolate shakes taste like chocolate milk and I was expecting that taste. Whoops. Not exactly. They taste like an attempt at chocolate milk but made with Water. I prefer the chocolate over the other varieties. I like the vanilla EAS Lean 15. Small amounts of dry Jello powder can be added to make various flavors, like cherry, and adding ice and mixing in a blender adds something new to food plan.

I'm eight days post op....sitting on my porch this morning sipping on my caramel Premiere shake. I have all the flavors and can't decide which is my favorite. I've been drinking them consistently for the past four months and they're the best that I found.

how many of you are using a blender to make shakes versus the already mixed in a container type of shakes?

I drank the pre-made Premier Protein shakes. I loved all of them too - pre op. My tastes changed post op. Milk products don’t sit well with my new belly. It’s good to prep for after surgery but keep all your receipts. You may need to take some things back.

I just got home from the grocery store. spent 225.00. I got 3 kinds of dry Protein Powder. I got Soups, a blender, yogurts, gatorade, soy milk, regular milk, Vitamins, sugar free Jello. There are very small amounts of sugar in the Protein powders. Will that be a problem?

Fairlife milk has more Protein than regular milk. I'd suggest keeping your sugars as low as possible. Its a wonderful journey that you're on with all of us here cheering you on!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
