Lacking Protein HELP



Recommended Posts

I'm on the same boat can't even think of my whey Protein Shakes, it makes me vomit... All I want is Clear Liquids and I'm 2 weeks out going on 3... I'm planing on ordering some soy Protein Powder to mix with juice and Water, since I can't tolerate any milk flavor or texture...

Try mixing unflavored Isopure with your Water and crystal light, this way you kill 2 birds with one drink. I have been doing this since sleeved which was Nov 5, 2012.

What brand of Isopure unflavored and where do you get it at

The Isopure drinks from GNC made me vomit. I'm pretty worried too actually. I'm having a hard time figuring out what to eat when and when to drink. I always feel vomity so I think I'm full but then my stomach is growling something fierce.

I feel a little lost.

@PHjason

I agree some of the rtd Isopure are gross. As mentioned earlier, try the Isopure unflavored powder and mix it to your flavored water. Muscle milk light is delicious, right now I am on cake batter, can't wait to try more flavors. I've read good reports on nectar banana creme, but I am going to order the sample pack to try first. What is your docs advice on eating?

      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?
