I couldn't do shakes, so my second week consisted of high Protein milk and yogurt. I used fairlife and YQ.

I've seen a lot of people can't stomach it after surgery, so keep these in mind if you have problems.

Good luck!

Gabybab that’s exactly what I was worried about! Thank you! I was thinking about using almond or coconut milk

I'm not sure that those milks have enough Protein? Are you vegan?

Most people handle Protein Shakes just fine. Give a few a shot before you rule them out!

Have plenty of variety of liquids to choose from I had Gatorade Zero, unsweet iced tea, Diet Peach Snapple Tea, and sugar-free popsicles in addition to premade GNC Lean shakes (chocolate)

@Gabybab no I’m not vegan! Just thought of using those to mix my Protein with to not risk milk upsetting my stomach

@GradyCat Thank you! I’ve got like 200 packs of crystal light and some Jello and popsicles!

@sillykitty thank you so much! I will try! 🙂

And, although unlikely, you could turn out intolerant to either of these. Start with cheap, before you opt for the more expensive milks, okay?

For those who are may be unaware of the FairLife animal abuse case that is happening, please know the other options for milk that exist. What happens on the Fair Oaks farms is horrific for the calves and moms & the video that surfaced last week is unbearable to watch.

Please know the other options for fortified Milk & avoid FairLife at all costs.

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
