Surgery Question ?



Recommended Posts

Do you really EVER want to taste Slimfast again? Have a slimfast burning party and get rid of it! If you're gonna drink liquids, make 'em taste good!

I think I might have a burning party with my Optifast (unless I can interest you in it Yasmina... LOL no way :speechles )

I have 2 boxes of Optifast left over and there is no way I ever want another one to touch my lips after the surgery. Looks like I will have to burn it. :clap2:

Slimfast is the same. Yuck! Never again!

I was assuming that the protine powders all taste the same as the slimfast But you are right, anything tastes better then that. I do not even know why I keep it in the cupboard !

I looked at Slimfast just to see how it measured up, and 1 scoop of choc. royale slimfast, and 1 cup of milk would only give you 14g of Protein. You can do better, and better tasting! The stuff I have, with milk gives me 29g, I believe. Now if I would only start drinking it.

well Ijust returned from Walmart. I was going to buy a Protein Powder, easier said then done. chocolate, vanilla, strawbrerry banana, cooler Protein powders what to buy ? I spent about 15min looking every product over. Then I saw one serving packages on the strawberry banana whey Gourmet. The decision was made . It is 120 cal with 23g of protein . We will hope for the best, but the name "whey " does not fill me full of hope !

If anyone is enjoying a protein powder please let me know what is . I will try this one tomorrow so I will let you know >

Good choice, Yasmina! I bought a sample of that from Walmart also, and at another place found a TON of other flavours (also from Whey Gourmet), and the strawberry Banana was the best by far!

That said, I also bought a ton of unjury, like Loriely. :)

      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.
