The pain liquid they gave me made me itch my first night home. So I called they let me do Tylenol & Tylenol pm but told me not to overdue it cause it could hurt you. I have only needed Tylenol twice in a month and only used my pump 4xs in the hospital. Good luck

I use body by vi but if you can always mix into a regular vanilla also. Butterfinger I do 8 oz of unsweetened almond milk 2 scoops of vi 2 tbs of sf butterscotch pudding 1 tbs pb2 and 5 ice cubes. Reese's I do 8oz of milk 2 scoops of vi 2 tbs sf pudding and 1 tbs of pb2 ice and mix. You can also add cottage cheese to increase protein and make smoother! Good luck

My surgeon told me yesterday you could always start stalling due to hidden sugars ESP if your eating alot of fruit. Also our body might stall if it feels like its going through starvation which will happen at times thought out our process!

I just hand my 2 nd period since surgery and I turned my cravings toward my shakes! With my mix I can have Reese's cup or a butterfinger cup shake and still have protein. For the first time ever I used midol and stuck to my protein diet worked out twice a day and lost 6 pounds on my period! So put your mind over matter and find the good choices to crave!

Was Protein The Enemy All Along?
marinewife78 replied to kiwiladydee's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I drink body by vi which turns out to be 24 grams of protein then I mix in anything I want to make any shake I am feeling!!! Most days I blend in1/2 cup cottage cheese to make it smooth and additional 14 grams of protein. Play around with stuff and find what's right for you!!! -

Broke The Scale
marinewife78 replied to marinewife78's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Ty everyone I am pretty excited!!! -
I have tricare and my surgeon was able to back over the last year of notes and if my dr noted anything about diet or his ideas they were able to use it. Also if you saw the dietician any they grabbed those so all I had to do was go in for one weigh in and got approved. Hope that might help good luck!!!

Getting Tired After I Eat
marinewife78 replied to armywife's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I can't do the protein shakes till solid food. Man do I miss them! -
Do you not live near or on a base? My surgeons did dietician appointment and we have a dietician on base. So check with your surgeon if they can do it for you. I had to do one with mine due to our dietician was on vacation.
