Im pretty new so i don't know if this will work for you and maybe u can ask the vets but my doc sed that the pure Protein called New Whey it comes in diff flavors i got the watermelon one they sell it in Walmart it has 42 grams of Protein and is 170 or 180 cal i poured 2 of those in a liter of smart Water which thinned out the thick Syrup taste and wasn't that bad maybe u could try that then ur getting protein and Fluid at the same time

Ok thanks

I think it just comes with time. I am slowly getting my Protein in. I have to switch it up though. Once day I will drink Pure Protein (25g) in Frosty chocolate with Water & then the next day I will have nectar flavored protein. I just get bored easily so I have to switch it up but I can only get in about about maybe 30 grams a day. But I am slowly increasing daily.

I can't do unflavored protein it makes me gag..all the protein shakes I were drinking before makes me gag.. I'm eating Greek Yogurt with 12g..also I found the moo milk at HEB ( not sure if you have one) and it also has 12g... If you try anything else let me know

My favorite Protein Drink is Injury unflavored mixed in to HEB Mootopia skim milk with a squirt of lite chocolate Syrup. Very tasty -have one first thing every morning. Followed by 0% Greek yogurt with little fruit and granola. I use a dash of Truvia and let it sit for awhile to soften the granola.

      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?
