My doctor recommends them to all his patients, when I asked him about the collagen Protein he didn't say anything bad about it. So I dunno what to do now :/

My doctor said that there are certain Proteins they prefer, I guess some sort of 'whey' Protein powder is best....maybe, but he said find what I can actually consume and stick with it. The bullets did it for me, I

never had hair loss, or any hair issues at all. I lost weight remarkably well and felt great. The first week

I TRIED to do the whey shake but it was taking me three hours to get a little over half down, by that time

it was warm and needed ice....which would melt and make MORE shake for me to drink. I was not getting

anywhere near what I needed Protein wise or liquid wise.....I had no time or room for Water or anything

else. The hospital had given me a 'goodie' bag when I left. All sorts of samples, Calcium, protein, including

Isopure, YUCK, whey protein powders, different brands and flavors and lastly, a protein bullet. It was the

last thing I tried and it's what I stuck with.

Thank you for sharing this! Never heard of protein bullets and have been struggling with numerous protein powders, shakes, and even smoothies. I've added the bullets to my shopping list and I hope they're the answer I need to.

      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!
