Premier Protein shakes, you can purchase at costco and Pure Protein Shakes are both 30 grams of Protein, low fat/low carb and approved for me by my NUT.

I liked using the Pure Protein powder better, it tasted less sweet to me and I would add some sugar free flavors from time to time. WIth your fat free milk, it is also over 30gm/ serving.

The Body Fortress Super Advanced whey Protein are 30 grams and only 150 calories. They are available at Walmart for like $15 for a 2 lb tube(27 servings) and come in several good flavors, I personally like the chocolate peanutbutter.

I use the Premier Protein shakes as well. I have the luxury of having an absolutely ridiculous amount of very thick hair. I followed my plan to the tee but still lost a ton of hair @2-3 months out. I am still losing it but not as much. Given the amount of hair I have I didn't stress to much about it. However my NUT told me to minimize Hair loss that at week 6 to make sure I get all my Protein plus maybe 10-15 grams extra and to never forget my Vitamins. Some people on this site suggest Biotin and it seems to get mixed reviews. My best advice would be to keep getting your protein in, unfortunately it is bound to happen but hopefully not too much!

Isopure Protein Powder from GNC has 50 grams of Protein. I ordered it from the website. colombian (coffee flavor) it's good. The store didn't carry that flavor. I like mixing it myself better because It's not so sweet. The Isopure fruit juice flavors (like gatorade) has 40grams of protein.

      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.

      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!
