I drink the Bariatric Advantage shakes. I love them!!! I think I'm addicted to my morning shake. I can no longer tolerate milk or soy so I use almond milk and add about 3 oz of Water to make it less thick. I strongly encourage using a Blender Bottle. They gave me the Protein shot bottles in the hospital and they were horrible. I didn't drink them. Some people on here suggest those with juice but be careful you do not want to drink your calories.

Syntrax Nectar and matrix product lines are the best. I really like the taste 4 months later of their "sweets" flavors and it mixes really well with Water and milk derivatives (including soy and almond milk). It is not too thick in my opinion. It is sometimes easier to get through shakes at the beginning by sipping 1-3 ounces every hour all day long. This worked really well for me and I was not hungry once. Good luck.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
