I'm looking for things that I can have during my first week after surgery because I am only allowed to have Water based things such as popsicles,jello,broth and water based Protein for the first week before I can move onto thicker liquids such as yogurt and shakes. I found something call Isopure at GNC, it has 40 grams of protein in a 20oz bottle and 0 carbs. I think thats pretty good. I wanted to know had anyone tried Isopure before and did it leave them with a full feeling? And also what flavors did you enjoy the most?

I am currently using the ISo Sensation and it is pretty good. It does leave me feeling full. The flavour I have is banana. Does not taste like a pizza, but fills the void when hungry :-)

I think the Isopure is great for when you're feeling hungry, it definitely takes away the hunger pains. I've only tried the apple, I like it diluted with ice and Water. You could probably put it in the blender and make a slushee. :)

My surgeon recommended it to me. He drinks it when he works out!

Occasionally I use it as a supplement between meals. I haven't noticed that it makes me feel any more full than, say Water. But it definitely has the Protein we need!

Best wishes on your exciting weight loss journey!

I liked the grape, passion fruit, strawberry/orange/banana and alpine fruit punch the best.

I bought 2 bottles and it has white stuff floating in it. Is this normal?

Isopure filled my pouch easily and I was full. It was a great protein option for a light liquid. The texture to me was horrible. it was very slimey and then chalky even with vigorous shaking. The actual flavor was not bad. I had a mango flavor I believe. Once I could move to shakes on day 3 I went back to my EAS Myoplex AdvantEDGE.

The white fibers are part of the Protein complex I believe. It may actually be a sugar substitute that solidified.

When you shake it they go away but come back.

It was part of the reason I did not like the texture.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
