I'm having a hard time getting my 60g of Protein a day. I have tried the at home gladiator powder with different fruit-- and I can't.. I can do muscle milk and juven--

Looking for something else that doesn't taste absolutely awful

Any tips?

Also, has anyone tried Protein Shots, and if so, what kinds?

Profect Protein shots are available from Bariatric Advantage or Amazon. They are avail in 25 and 50 gram sizes and a bunch of flavors. I bought the orange-pineapple flavor and mixed with Crystal Light orange flavor. It tastes a bit vitaminy, but if it's cold it's better. It gave me a nice lift.

You can also mix unjury strawberry Sorbet Protein Powder in sugar-free Jello, or with Crystal Light.

I was told to not do the protien shots by mt NUT.....my doctor prefers that I eat my protien, and if I must have 1 bar or 1 shake a day to help....but to eat as normal as possible....as he said this isnt a diet...this is a lifestyle change, the way you are eating (healthy) you will eat healthy hopefully the rest of your life...

I don't like the shakes either - you can try Isopure from GNC. It's a clear drink that comes in a lot of flavors 40g Protein in a 20oz bottle

      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.

        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!
