I add 3 scoops of Beneprotein Protein powder to my chocolate HMR Protein Shakes (made with 8 oz. of skim milk) for 23 grams of Protein per 1/2 C. serving. I have two shakes per day.

I also eat low-fat small curd cottage cheese for 10 grams of protein. I eat cottage cheese twice a day.

Consuming the shakes and cottage cheese gives me 66 grams of protein. Not bad.

I bought my Designer Whey Unflavored Protein powder at Vitamin Shoppe. They have a small can or a large tub.

I haven't added it to plain Water to see if there's actually no taste. There's 2g of sugar so I'm sure there's some taste but it's not enough to notice if you put it in food.< /p>

Thanks! Going to a support group today since I was sleeved in Houston and Live in Austin trying to find a support group here. Heading to Vitamin Shoppe. My surgeon is a vegan so he really tries to get us off the protien drinks. Like I am eating garbonso Beans and kidney beans with some cucumber. But have not figure out how eating like that I can get all the protien in . Thanks for all of your inputs. If you are comin g up with any new food concoctions please post!

I eat shrimp, chicken, PB2, cottage cheese, edamame (tons of protein), kashi go lean, string cheese, soy milk (lattes), turkey, hummus, and greek yogurt. I haven't had a Protein Shake since 2 weeks out and I am never looking back. So done with that stuff.

I eat eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, chicken, beef, veggie burgers, string cheese, milk, turkey, ham, greek yogurt, hummus. Most Protein Shakes make me really sick, almost like I'm dumping, so I try to avoid those. I've tried the soy and pea shakes and they work well, but they taste terrible.

I am 8 weeks out and can eat almost anything but no pastas, sugar, breads or rice. I eat a lot of salmon, tuna, chicken, pumpkin baked with egg beaters, splenda and spices, green Beans, scrambled eggs with Laughing Cow cheese added, turkey bacon, taco salad made with very fine lean ground round, shredded lettuce, diced Tomato, fat-free cheese and I use 3-4 crumbled Bariatric Choice Protein crisps for the crunchiness. Chili is also one of my "go-to" foods. I am eating 4-5 oz per meal.

      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!
