A new me & bit frustrated!



Recommended Posts

I am 5 days post op. Feel great - too good I guess. What am I doing wrong because I'm hungry? A few crackers would be delightful!!

Down 30 lbs (5 since surgery) so pleased but I feel tired, sick of Protein Drinks and Soup. No regrets just frustrated!! Anybody tried unflavored Protein added to their Water or soup? Brand? Where to buy? Ugh I love all I'm learning about myself and food but wow anyone who says this is the easy way out of being fat needs a knock on the head!!! No picnic for sure!

I'm 11 days post op and completely understand. I haven't been able to tolerate any milk based Protein drinks. Fortunately, I had bought some unflavored Isopure powder before surgery. It's great. I am getting the majority of my protein from putting it in some Crystal Light right now. Although, I can put a little in my Soups and seem to do ok. You can find the Isopure at GNC and some online retailers. Good Luck! We'll be on mushies before we know it. I can't wait!

Thank you so much!! I feel better knowing someone is feeling the same way.

What does the above comment mean "wrong thread?" Did I offend someone? I'm new at this stuff- thought I started a topic.

Oh well Grubb79 thanks so much! When my pitty party is done I'm off to GNC! You really put some sunshine in my day. ????

I was typing a post and for some reason on my laptop the browser flipped back to this thread while I was typing and the comment for that post went on this thread instead of a different thread. Just a mistake.

      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?
