Any suggestions would be appreciated. Not shakes or drinks looking for shots.

Thanks,

Sorry dont know of such a thing but why not get your Protein from food? My dr doesn't advocate Protein Shakes or supplements excet pre and 2 weeks post op.

I would say look further into whats really in those shots before you consider them your main source of protein...

Walmart has them in a variety of flavors as does most grocery stores and now even at convenience stores when you get gas. (i dont like them but i did them usually once a day on my pre ops) and i do have some in my fridge at work just in case i feel i need a (shot). hope this helps :)

ps-the watermelon flavor is the worst...yuk

You were right the watermelon is soOooooo bad. What is worse is that the shots irritated my tongue really bad and can't take them.

Just wanted to let you know my nutritionist told me not to take them. If you look at the ingredients the first one is not even Protein it's Water. I would urge anyone taking these to get them approved. She also said for sure your body is not really getting all the protein some listed can't be absorbed by your body and they are nasty tasting. Plus irritated my tongue really bad.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
