DeAna N 229 Posted May 29, 2012 Congrats to you I've read that some people aren't hunger at all & some are famished hopefully you will get some relief once the gas passes I'm not banded yet I'm in the beginning stages of getting insurance approval good luck Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ocgirljo 7 Posted May 30, 2012 Thanks, DeAna. I visited my primary today who sells Ideal Protein. Got some cream of chicken Soup with 21 grams of protein per serving. Fill a little more satisfied today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdlapband 30 Posted May 30, 2012 The Protein is key! if you get sick of the same protein over and over again, check out Syntrax Nectar (promise I don't get paid to say any of this) There are so many different flavors so it makes it easy to get all your protein in. Mybariatricpantry.com sells sample packs of nectar, matrix, and protizyme I've loved all of those so far! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ocgirljo 7 Posted May 30, 2012 Tried Syntrax. Did not like it. Thanks for the suggestion. I'm hoping for puréed chicken and baby food fruits. I just need to hold out until Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
