Unjury Chicken soup flavored protein?
Dawnislas replied to Boudala's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
unjury has an unflavored Protein that is really good. I add it to my yogurt. I have actually tried several including the chicken Soup and are very good. I will be buying several tubs on my next order. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
4 weeks post op and now starting the soft food phase
Dawnislas replied to Ninjagogo's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I will be 5 weeks out next week and I can start on real food next Saturday. I haven't really had a hard time with the liquids but I am looking forward to an egg and maybe chicken salad. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Any protein drink suggestions
Dawnislas replied to danny77's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
BariatricChoice website has some good fruit concentrate that is really good and a change from the shakes. Premier is good but so are the ones from GNC. There is another Proteinex that is good. I mix with Water and propel or Gatorade to change up the taste. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Any other 9/13/16 sleevers out there?
Dawnislas replied to AMS115's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I had my surgery on 9/13. I am on week 3 of 5 of full liquid Protein. I eat a lot of yogurt and don't mind the shakes. I can't have any food until after week 5. So far I'm doing ok. Going to gym a few times a week . Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

How long before you could go back to work? (desk job/non physical)
Dawnislas replied to ella37's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Surgery on Sept 13. Went back to work full time the following Monday, Sept. 19. Even did my football duty Friday night the 23. Tired but not unreasonably so. I have a desk job luckily I don't have to teach any longer. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Go to BariatricChoice website. They have Protein straw/ banana Gelatin that is good. Also some protein concentrate that I mix with Water and sometimes add in Gatorade to change the taste up. No powdery after taste. Syntrax is good also. Proteinex is a liquid you can drink straight from bottle but it is too sweet for me so I mix with water. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Ideas during clear liquid phase?
Dawnislas replied to feller2005's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Look on the Bariatric Choice website. They have many different options. I read the reviews and made my choices from there. Haven't been sorry at all Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I was at Walmart today, looked and the only Premier Protein shake on the shelf was the banana cream. I bought it because of the reviews on here. It will be my Breakfast in the morning with some chocolate PB2 added in. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Diluted Gatorade, apple juice was good for me Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
BariatricChoice.com has some Protein concentrate pouches that are really good. Several varieties and they go down like flavored Water. Not a shake texture, taste, etc. there is also something called Proteinex that is on same site and is good. Try it maybe it will help. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

surgery tomorrow!
Dawnislas replied to katie09/21/2016's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
First 3 days post op was hard. I am 8 days out, back to work and my surgeon told me today I was near perfect in my recovery. You may second guess but this is the best thing I have done and I bet you will feel the same. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
BariatricChoice.com sells some really good Protein shakes + a strawberry banana Gelatin that has 15 grams of protein. I also get the concentrate drinks pouches to add to my Water at 15 grams of protein. I needed variety and I do have it. I read the reviews and picked what sounded palatable to me and I am happy so far. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Sleep and multivitamins
Dawnislas replied to jilani's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You had major surgery and sleep is your bodies way of healing itself. Add to that the low calories and it will take weeks to feel really right again. I take 2 Vitamins and I take one at different times of the day. I'm going to move to Flintstone vitamins +Iron after I finish all my freebies. If that doesn't help then I'll adjust.
