It would be ideal to drink the shakes but like you, I can no longer tolerate them. I have tried different brands and wasted way too much money since being sleeved in July. I have one or two more to try before giving up for good. I'd have already thrown in the towel except I know how important Protein is to a body.

Never heard of it but just found the website. They have trial sizes which is right up my alley. Thanks OTR!

Try making Protein ice cream - recipes on "the world according to eggface" blog. It tastes waaaay better.

Since surgery my shakes taste aweful! The Protein chicken broth is ok (Unjury brand)-but tastes salty and it cools off before I can finish! Finally today I tried unflavored whey (Unjury brand, again) with my raspberry lemonade Chrystal Lite-Bingo! Delish! The trick is only make 8 oz. at time w/ 1/2 scoop, 2-3 ice cubes- shake in shaker bottle. 11 grams. I had 2 today plus Soup and 1/2 choc.shake! Finally met protein goal 1st time since surgery. If you like CL you should try this.

      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!
