I've been on a clear liquid diet longer than most due to a leak and abscess. This site, some wonderful peops suggested to me Isopure Protein ready to drink (RTD) bottles. I haven't found one that I like yet. However, the lady at Vitamin Shoppe was a bodybuilder and suggested this other clear Liquid Protein to me.... it's wonderful! It's called Cytomax Pure Protein Performance and they have three flavors: watermelon (red), tangerine (orange) and tropical (green). I haven't had the watermelon yet, but the other two are a bit tart at first.... but I really am enjoying them. I put them in a huge mug with ice and sip sip sip throughout the day. They have 40 g of protein per 20 oz bottles and nothing else is in the drink (essentially... a bit of sucralose perhaps). They are made of whey protein isolate (which is the second ingredient behind purified water). I got mine from Vitamin Shoppe but I have seen them online to order as well. Hope you enjoy!

Thanx these sound good! I'm on mushy/soft phase now but I love trying new Proteins to break up the monotony. Good fruity ones are hard to find.

My husband just went to get a few more of these (I'm on conf calls right now) and said they appear to have other flavors as well but that I don't know yet.... I hope you guys enjoy them! And for the price, they are 3.79 for a 20 oz bottle.

You guys are welcomed to ask me anything anytime... I was originally sleeved 3/5 and then d/c'd 3/7. 3/9-3/14 I went back in the hospital with pneumonia, then 3/19-3/29 I was in the hospital for a leak and abscess. I had a revision to my sleeve 3/20 as the staple slipped. My tummy necroted away from the staple and caused a leak. It happens to 1% of the population so no worries, I am the one for the year people. :)

I just got off of a clear liquid diet (yes since essentially 3/5) and I've lost about 51 lbs. in that time.

My tummy is now acting 'weird' whenever I try full liquids... so if you have input on that, hit me up please! :)

I've been drinking the Pure Protein for a while now, and I love them. They are a little cheaper than Isopure, and a little sweeter. All I've seen are the three flavors (Watermelon, Tangerine, Tropical), if anyone knows of different ones, I'd love to hear about them.

      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!

      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!
