  1. I am 10 weeks post surgery. Today I tried my first protein bar. (Quest- Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough) It tasted amazing until I started to get to the end of it.....then I developed this nasty taste in the back of my throat! As a matter a fact- I have noticed this taste since I had my surgery with certain foods. Any ideas? Could it be ketosis? Acid Reflux?
  2. Best Protein bars???? Ready, set, go......
  3. How many mgs of Calcium citrate and how many iu's of Vit D should be taken post surgery?

    Who is Queen of crop? And thanks for the help!
  6. Having a difficult time getting my protein shakes down. My diet states I can replace a protein shake by adding unflavored protein powder to oatmeal, cottage cheese, ricotta and even coffee and use this instead of a shake. Just wondering what brand of protein powder everyone likes? Mine has to be between 15-20 grams of protein and 5 grams or less of sugar and fat.
  7. Thanks for all the great recommendations!

  9. Today is my first bad day since my surgery 2 1/2 weeks ago. Since I took my pills this morning I have been nauseous after and during eating,I also get the hiccups and feel like vomiting. Also tons of gas in my chest area and it's painful. I was not able to get all my Protein, liquids and meals down due to feeling this way today. I'm scared- what would you do if it continues tomorrow?
