I have a milk intolerance and an allergy to soy bean. I want to make sure this surgery goes without any glitch because I cannot hear that "I told you so" from my husband. They suggested the Unjury whey Protein but after taking it for about 5 days, I'm experiencing abdominal discomfort, headaches...I am afraid to rely upon it for the pre and post surgical nutrition. I cannot tolerate soybean protein at all. Are there any recommendations for me from experienced surgical patients? I was amazed when I was told my the medical office to contact this block for suggestions...AND disappointed that the medical office seemed reluctant to do this research for me. Give me what you know!

I like Isopure just fine, but really love designer whey prot blitz! I found them in the Vitamin shoppe single serve case and then ordered a full case. I like the grape best.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
