I have the same diet & I start in a couple days what kind of Protein shake did you get?

I have naked Protein I got on Amazon and make my own. I have some fit4life I picked up ages ago that's food. It's strawberry kiwi. I also have some veggie Soup from BA. I will want more rjongs savory than a month of sweet. That's why I like the naked protein. I even put it in my coffee. The trick it to let it sit for a while and let the protein take on the coffee flavor. I sometimes nuke it to warm it back up. That's the key with unflavored protein. BA also sells a protein elixir ....I have white grape and you can add it to anything. It's a great way to ads 10 grams to your Water. Hope that's not info overload lol also great thing for right after surgery is the BA with all the Vitamins and Calcium in it! It's pricey, but a great way to get protein AND Vitamins that first two weeks.

I haven't tried them yet but stopped at GNC on my way home from work today. I bought 4 of the Isopure Protein drinks. They are buy 3 get 1 free so it was a better deal. Total was 16. They are 24 oz so two servings a bottle' date=' 40 grams of protien total, 0 carbs. From what I read/videos, people either love or hate them. The main reason I decided on these was the are like Gatorade instead of a shake which I don't like. Will let you know how they taste :)[/quote']

I got a few...they are just OK! I have them in the fridge for after surgery

My sleeve is scheduled for February 25th. I'm a little worried about recovering on my own with no help, as my husband will be in Europe, but still very excited about having it done.

I will have my surgery on Feb. 20th. Will be on a 2 week pre-op diet. Think Slimfast or Medifast. combination of 5 Protein Bars and shakes and one meal in the evening 5 oz of lean meat and veggies.

As for as not worried, everyone is different and you will handle it the way that works for you. Best of luck and much success!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
