No, I have never heard of it.

I wonder how much Protein a body can absorb in one sitting...I've seen various responses to this question, but I don't have a clear idea of scientifically how much we can absorb in one meal. I mean based on one serving of that stuff having 60 grams of Protein, then you could eat that and be done for the day right? :huh: lol, not that I think that is a good plan, but I am curious about how much of that 60 grams can be absorbed at once.

Sounds interesting though...did you order it?

I have not tried that. I get the EAS Myoplex 5lb bag with 23g Protein for $28.00 at Sam's Club. Best price by volume I have found and the chocolate tastes like Carnation Instant. Yummy.

No haven't ordered yet. I want to see what everyone said first, since I haven't heard of it before.

Ooooh, got it, thanks for posting. It takes 3 scoops to = 60 grams of Protein. That makes a little more sense.

11 (60 gm protein) servings for $37 plus $12-15 shipping to my place in CA... pretty steep.... around $4+ a serving. I guess it might be worth it if you could get it down for the first week and a half when its nearly impossible to get enough protein.... it says a full serving goes in a cup of milk or Water, a half serving goes in a half glass of milk or Water. I wonder how thick it would be?

I haven't tried this one. For pre-op it should be okay but I suspect it might be too heavy for early post op. It also is kind of high in calories if you mix it with skin milk it will come to around 450 for a full serving.

      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!
