I prefer the Premier Nutrition shakes. They can be purchased at costco or Sam's. 30g of Protein in each. Congrats and good luck on your surgery!

This is gonna be fun.

I'll give you a few.

Unjury- I like their chocolate splendor, & their chicken Soup flavor. The chicken is great when your tired of all the sweet stuff

*uses pure whey protien isolate

Nectar® by Syntrax- these have a few fruitier flavors. I like the fuzzy navel & cherry flavors best

*uses pure whey protien isolate

Chike meal replacement- this taste better than the other two but has more calories since it is more than just a protien supplement.

*uses whey Protein isolate & whey Protein concentrate

Premier Nutrition- this one is all about convince & taste. It uses multuple lower quality dairy based Proteins.

I use ready to drink in a can Pure Protein with 35gm of protein. On days I feel like making my own; then I use Jay Robb brand or Whey Gourmet (Peanut butter chocolate).

Question: does the nectar by Syntrax taste like crystal light and is it still a watery consistency or does it gel or thicken the Water?

It has the thinnest consistency I've seen in a protien mix, very close to Water. (definately thinner than skim milk)

No, I don't think it taste like crystal light. It seems to have a fruitier flavor than crystal light

To me crystal light has a somewhat harsh taste from the aspartame.

Being a whey protien drink, it does have a bit if a "milky" undertone.

Which is why I'm so picky about them. I just think certain flavors work better with this than others.

Another flavor you might try is the caribbean cooler this one gets good reviews. The only reason I don't like is because it has a distinct sweetened coconut taste to it (like pniã colada) that I just don't like.

      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!
