If you eat yogurt, you are taking Probiotics. Just not in a pill. :001_wub:

I take a pill once a day and I'm now taking it twice a day. I got mine at GNC. I doubt it will make me be able to drink milk, but I think it should help with the gas situation. :lol0:

Are you kidding me? I had my daughter do it for me. I had it

all made but couldn't figure out what to do next. She whipped it

out in a few seconds. I don't like the background she choose,

but I didn't want to bug her about that part. In a few days,

I may ask her to fool around with a different background. I don't

think the purple goes very well with the shirt color.

I like that site though Susan. The other one gives everyone a head

with no neck!

I was lactose intolerant before the surgery - however, it affected me differently (out the other end) and I didn't throw up - so there were times when I would suffer the consequences and eat some ice cream -- however, I don't like throwing up so I will now pass on ice cream.

I tried lactaid before surgery and it didn't really seem to make a difference in the reaction my body had to ice cream so I gave up on it. I don't care to drink milk at all and I actually can enjoy my Golden Spoon frozen yogurt as much as I did ice cream. I can't tolerate much of anything sweet as it is soooo very sweet tasting to me.

I had a glass of milk with ice (about 3 oz) last night. Lordy was that a mistake. I guess I am now lactose intolerant. I HAVE to drink milk so I am going to try the pills. I sure hope they work because I love milk.

Hayley, I have been that way since getting my sleeve too. And, I hate it because I really do love milk. I used to drink several glasses a day.

it's weird . It comes and goes for me. I have had small glasses of milk and done okay.

Yesterday I went to a wedding and I could not figure out what I at or drank but I sure had gas and diarrhea (sorry tmi) when I got home.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
