This reminds me... I need to get back to doubling my scoops and getting 50+ in one shot of 8-12 oz. prefer the 8oz less is better but the thick gags me. And to have to do two shakes kills me!!!

Yes, I prefer to get in as much at one time and be done with it! I've tried freezing it but didn't care for it but it might be cuz it's strawberry and it gags me anyway!

I'm doubLing the powder on my shake...i can get 52g in one 8oz shake

Your body can only process 30 grams of Protein at a time so you are wasting the other 22.

Just remember that you're body can only absorb 30 grams at a time. Unless you're splitting the shake up into 2 servings you're wasting 22 grams.

I drink the already made my Protein Shakes you can buy at Sams Club. They are 30 grams in once can and they taste like chocolate milk. Also low in sugar. I figure one for Breakfast and another around dinner would be 60 grams. And plus food if be set for my Protein for the day.

I split that into 3 servings...there's no way I could drink all that at once

Ok, great! Would hate to have you waste any Protein.... It's hard enough getting it in!! I have to try some other flavors because its getting boring!

      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!
