Try the premier Protein they are my favorite! Also Swanson makes some really good broths out side the normal beef and chicken.

3 days post-op When does swelling end?
Elode replied to little_ms_sunshyne's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Probably a week although my belly wasn't very swollen so I guess it depends, is it incision swelling or gas? -
Pre op diet frustration!

Well if you think it hard for you just imagine how hard it is for your body!! Give it time to adjust and catch up! -

2 months PO down 4 jeans sizes! In total shock!
Elode replied to kikicoates78's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
Fantastic! -
Yay! Congratulations!!

I don't have that issue but it sounds like a good question to ask your nutritionist. Maybe a clear Protein like the isopure?

Bites half the size of your thumbnail
Elode replied to brians34's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
lol! I've never heard that! I take small bites but I'm not sure they equal out to half my thumb nail! -
Wow ok that's a little sporadic but Yay!!!

Good luck!

Maybe it's because some people use a lot of sugar and junk which then makes it into a big cup of empty calories...or maybe because it can dehydrate you and they want you to be hydrated in the beginning when it's hardest?

You won't die : )- I do decaf tea but I suppose if it were absolutely necessary I would drink some. I'm not even sure the reason why we aren't suppose to. My surgeon just said not now, while I'm healing so I don't know if it a lifetime thing or not?

Worst "compliment" you have gotten since surgery
Elode replied to Lacowgirl72's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
@@Stevehud Its rude and classless to refer to someone as "fat"! There are much better way to comment/congratulate someone on losing weight without using that word! Would it be ok to tell someone who had plastic surgery "oh wow I almost didn't recognize you now that your not ugly!"? The word fat is a derogatory term for most people (especially women). Maybe I just have a little more class than that along with giving a hoot about people's feelings. I know I don't want to be called fat now and I sure as hell won't take it as a compliment later I don't care If it is "true" I'm not "hiding" anything I'm living my life and I refuse to be acknowledge by a size! Oh and Ps: dying your hair is a chemical change not a physical change, so as not to be confused with weight loss! -
The p3 snacks are also good. They have a small meat, cheese, and nuts. I get mine at Walmart by the lunchables....

5 Weeks after surgery and not loosing a pound...
Elode replied to anaarnaiz's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
My surgeon says to up your calories....but your body is probably just adjusting to the new food. You may not be showing on the scale but are your clothes getting lose? Are you working out and maybe gaining muscle? -
