Not a protein drink....but protein jello
JBoyd replied to JBoyd's topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
Interesting. My nutritionist was thrilled about this and says it is a great source of protein. -

Getting Pregant After having the Sleeve done...
JBoyd replied to adrienneb86's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am also curious to know, we plan on trying in a year or so. I am one month out. My doctor has had many sleeve patients get pregnant and have a successful pregnancy. -
The egg salad is great by itself! Or on Wheat Thins. I love The Pioneer Woman!

You will get hungry. Trust me. You are on liquids, I just finished that stage. Once you go o mached foods and such, it gets WAY better. Of course, this is coming from a new patient of only 2 weeks ago.

Well, I'm at my 2 weeks PO. I've been on regular, mashed up foods (and sometimes not so mashed up) food for a few days now. Today, I feel like all I did was eat! I really didn't think I would be able to hold this much but I was. Somewhat. I did great all day, being at work is easy because you are busy and not focused on eating. However, after 5 was a different story today. I had turkey Jerky, some chex mix (hey, no judging). A few hours later I had some lasagna. While I was eating the lasagna, I felt guilty as I shouldn't be eating it. I didn't need it, I'd already had my "meal" of jerky and chex mix. It went down fine, then all of a sudden it hit me. I had way too much. I got the "feeling" that I was beginning to think I wasn't going to get. I had wayyy too much today. The feeling is hard to describe. It isn't painful, just a little uncomfortable. It was just siting in my throat. No pain, just sitting there. Well, I gagged myself and made myself throw up. Yes, I do feel better. And now I know what to expect should I stuff myself again. Much to my demise, I dint feel stuffed. But according to my throat, I was.

That is GREAT news! Hopefully this new place will take care of you and set it all up.

Good luck! It will happen, keep your chin up!

A heck of a lit better than plain Protein shakes! I was mistaken though. Tere is only like 23 grams of protein. -

I think it is pretty good. -
Guess it's time to introduce myself...
JBoyd replied to adavis's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Glad you are doing well! I was a band conversion as well, I have my sleeve on Aug. 25. So far so good! Keep up the good work! -
Congrats! You are going to love being able to chew! I had my 1.5 week apt. yesterday, and he advanced me as well. Told me to start trying different foods, just taking it slow. I had a whole egg and a piece of toast this morning.

Thought I would share what I recently found. I purchased it at our local HEB, but it is listed at GNC for cheaper. There is about 25 grams of Protein per cup. Pure Protein website (This website offers a coupon) GNC online store- offers the Jello at $5.99!
