June 4th!! One week away and I'm so excited. So far the worst part is smelling good food but not being able to have it, but I'm powering through. It'll all be worth it.

My surgery was on Friday and the Premier Protein drinks didn’t give me problems. I just started the shakes again today for post-op and I’m still ok. You might want to try a different brand.

Ok, I have to look into that, because I’m not feeling these shakes.< br />
How are you feeling, how did your surgery go?

I really like the Premier Protein and you can get them at costco. My doctor actually recommended these as they have 30g of Protein and only 160cal.

My absolute favorite PP peaches and cream, strawberries and cream then caramel. Wal-Mart has come,out,with their Equate brand, same Protein and,calories. But their caramel doesn't taste as good as PP, oh it's not horrid but has an aftertaste of evaporated milk, Premier doesn't.

My local costco unfortunately only carries the chocolate, vanilla and caramel. But if you have a card you can order any of the flavors online. I got the Peaches and Cream delivered last week and they are good.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      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!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
