I am just saying. I took one of the New Whey shots to my nutritionist and she advised me not to take them. Also no they would not count as a meal and will do nothing as far as satisfying your hunger. Depending what stage of food you are in when you get to solids that is what you should be eating.

Yes I had a few but thought they were a meal cause of the amount of Protein so then I wasn't eating I lost weight but wasn't sure if it was okay to only drink them for a meal:)

I also showed them to my nutritionist and she said not to drink them. She said the type of Protein they have in them (collagated?) can't be digested and used for protein. So it's like drinking them for nothing. I also did some research and your body can only absorb so much protein an hour and the rest you excrete. I think it's 15-20g an hour

Great post. That is what I was told as well. So glad you posted. Always check with doctor or nutritionist if you are not sure about something.

Thanks for posting that. Just shows us how doctors vary. Either way it is defenitly not a replacement for a meal.

      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!
