Isopure protien shakes. You can find them at the vitamin shop. 50g protien and no carbs.

I recommend isopure shakes. 50g of protien 0 sugar. I lost 20 lbs in 2 weeks drinking 2 of those and eating only chicken for dinner for the first week. Second week 3 shakes nothing else except tons of water.

Work went good and then band practice after. ..the only incision that is sore is the one right above my belly button. My only secret is moving around as much as possible (to get the gas out) and drinking at least 64 oz of water. I am only drinking protein shakes (isopure) and eating homemade chicken broth and beef broth. I will start vitamins this weekend. My surgeons were great. Dr. Korman and dr. Samouha at marina del rey bariatric hospital. I am following thier instructions carefully and praying every day for a quick and painless recovery. I consider myself very blessed I know some of you are in s lot of pain. Keep your spirits up a positive attitude does wonders for heeling.

The first few days on liquids are the hardest. ..I totally understand. The fridge thing is a major bummer also! Stick with it, it is worth it.

Glad surgery went well. I am 5 days post op and going back to work tomorrow. I feel great.

I had to wash with hibiclens before surgery. Its normal

Hi im in lake isabella and I am 4 days post op. Im happy with my surgery and jave great doctors. Im just looking for anyone else in my area who wants to exchange tips etc.

I have to agree. I've taken phentermine I lost a lot of wieght. I stopped because my liver became hard my attitude changed I cried all the time it almost killed me literally. Please read the side effects it is so dangerous. Now I have a great outlook. Surgery has forced me to make healthy choices and I enjoy doing so. The hunger is gone and I don't have a bunch of scary side effects.

Good luck ladies! I am 4 days post op and I can say the pain is not as bad as I thought it would be...I didn't regret it for one second.

I have seen that show. It is a good story.

I was told only water protien shakes and chicken broth for 2 weeks post op. It is a challenge to drink all of that but I just take small sips all day. I do not have any desire to eat at all. I feel full constantly.

Thank you. I am feeling better today and I am now 1 lb less than the day of surgery. The gas is getting better. Hopefully I will return to work on Monday. I am walking around a lot and drinking all my water. ..hoping to get down at least 1 protien shake today.

I was sleeved July 9th. I am still very sore but getting my fluids down and yesterday got 50 grams of protien. Feeling very tight in my chest.
