I will be thinking about you and wishing you a fast and painfree surgery and recovery! What a great way to start a new year! I liked the ZeroCarb Isopure and the Unjury post op. They mix well and taste pretty good. Now I just pick up a Protein Powder at Walmart or HEB, whatever one has the lowest suger.....I think it is Body Fortress whey Protein I get. I am not a Breakfast eater and still drink a Protein Drink for breakfast, but dont worry too much about the quality of it since my real protein and nutrients come from food now.

I don't know much about Protein Drinks yet, but I wish you all the best and I hope everything goes smoothly for you tomorrow.

I agree fully with Lianna---I used Zero Carb Isopure, and Unjury. I got the ZC Isopure at GNC, and ordered the Unjury at www.unjury.com . They have small sample packs you can buy before buying the large containers. I really liked the chocolate, but mostly used the unflavored with other flavor agents, like SF, FF pudding mixed in, or DaVinci SF syrups. Plus with the unflavored you can add it to anything as you progress with your foods, if you feel you need a Protein increase.

Good Luck to you---I hope the surgery and recovery are smooth sailing!!! Come back an let us know how it went!

Welcome to LBT!

I hope all goes just perfect for you tommorrow, and congratulations on taking hold of your life, and making it what you want it to be. It is amazing to me to have learned that as a large person, everyone seems to just expect you not to succeed at your goals, but they think that if you are slim that you can do anything(my personal life observation) that you set out to do. Well, this is so different, you choose to change you life as a large person, and you are not accomplished at it until you are a smaller person,,,,,,,,,, it really messes people up in their perception of what we can do if we want it bad enough. Just for a test, as you lose weight, pay attention to how people approach you, listen to you, and respond to what you have to say. It is really an eye opener, or it was for me.

After you have gone through the three day WHAT HAVE I DONE phase you will start on the best journey you can ever take, the road to health!!!!

Again, good luck, take your pain meds, and welcome to bandsville!!!!!

I'm very glad your surgery went well and I too hope we can start a support group in the Katy area since driving to the Galleria via 1-10 is a nightmare.:)

      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!
