I use syntax nectar premier shakes.

Like fish, chicken

Occasional red meat

fruit

Yogurt

Tea coffee Water

Don't like

Sweets

bread

Pasta

Cutting out slider foods

popcorn

My biggest mistake is when I was cleared to eat all foods I did and didn't understand the importance of Protein dense foods. Which my weight to me. Was slower.

Good luck

When I got my lapband the nutritionist I saw suggested dairy to help with skin so that's an easy way for me to remember

Hello Sisters

I gave tried that Protein shot fruit punch~ omg it was horrible. I felt sick the rest on the morning. I only drank half of it. I prefer Chike! it comes in various flavors~ Very vanilla, strawberry Burst and banana Magic each contain 28 grams of protein. I mix it with 8oz. of skim milk shake it up, sometimes I place it in the freezer to make it colder. It's almost like a thin malt.

I tried the grape one and I found it to be tolerable. I am glad to have them because getting down 70 grams of Protein is still hard for me and my surgery date wad 6.10.13.

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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!

    • buildabetteranna

      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!
