Im exhausted 11 days post-op need advice
roleypoley replied to kick butt take names's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
i had that problem as well...instead of letting it get really bad and possibly ending up at hospital i got myself a myers cocktail iv. there are places everywhere nowadays that do it for a reasonable price and even come to your home and do it right there. felt so much better after. getting one of those now every 4 weeks and it makes all the difference to me -

I am SO tired of sweet things!
roleypoley replied to sleevedllama's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I started hating all the sweet stuff/shakes pretty much right after surgery. 9 weeks out now and also wanted more savory from the get go. still having a hard time with most animal protein( slimies) , but what i found i tolerate well from about 4 weeks out was scallops and shrimp. edamame are a real life saver, and great to get protein in. also lean cuisine has a high protein ravioli dish that i tolerate very well. also you can find all kinds of protein chips on amazon at a good price. -
Non-sweet pre-made protein shake options
roleypoley replied to Anthropose's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I hate the protein shakes. all of them , too sweet and chalky. just gross...luckily i found these at the local grocety store which is more like flavored buttermilk . a lil sweet but mainly tart. plus 25- 30 g of protein per bottle. costly yes but then again i barely eat..so whatever i have no problems drinking 2 of those a day had my surgery june 25, ,today down 23 pound since surgery so i think they work https://bmoreorganic.com/ -

Scheduled for sleeve July 10th may back out
roleypoley replied to Letsgetgoing2018's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
You're very welcome. Go easy on the shopping prior to surgery though..i stocked up a lot and can't stand the taste of the shakes now after surgery.. a lot of things taste different. shakes are now chalky and way too sweet. The one thing that tastes and feels good is bonebroth. And from what i understand it also helps with the healing and is high in protein -

One Month Post Op-Is it just me?
roleypoley replied to Rebuilding the Temple's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I just got sleeved on monday 25th. still pretty sore but doing alright otherwise. i'm having issues with the protein shakes / most beverages now as well, everything just tastes too sweet and somehow off. however luckily, through experimenting i found this beverage, it goes down very well for me, and today i actually managed to hit the 64 oz by basically constantly sipping.i like the cucumber kiwi, dark cherry and the watermelon raspberry best. also bone broth and campells soup, watered down and strained works quite well. https://www.amazon.com/WANU-Water-Nutrient-Infused-Strawberry-Watermelon/dp/B00V0XPNJE/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1530285747&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=wanu%2Bwater&th=1 -

roleypoley replied to gully90's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Yeah it's not quite the same even though it's great to have support in family in friends. My hubby was looking at me like i lost my mind when the 2 and 3 oz food containers for meal prep showed up and i explained to him, that's all that'll fit in there lol -
