Help with Aftercare



Recommended Posts

I have a small sample bottle' date=' but am afraid to try it cuz I hear so many bad things! :) wish I wouldn't have bought all the Protein samples I did either, cuz they are WAY too sweet now. Thought I was preparing, but can't hardly tolerate them now![/quote']

That's what I'm afraid of. I want to be prepared but I don't know what I'm going to like. I'm really hoping you can't taste the unflavored whey Protein in creamy Soups. I'm pinning a lot of my hopes on that. Can you have broccoli cheese Soup?

Yes I can. I bought some but haven't had it. I did have split pea yesterday. I pureed it with Greek yogurt to add Protein and it was so good I added the unflavored to cream of wheat and I could taste it. Ill have to try it in soup tomorrow. I found that the Chike brand of protein isn't too sweet for me and you mix it with only alittle Water or milk, so its a lot of protein without a big drink!

Do you mix plain Greek yogurt in it? What ratio?

I just put the Soup, Water, and a big scoop of yogurt. Was actually really good, had it again today!! I only measure the portion right before I eat it.

Hey guys I am in desperate need of help, I'm having a very hard time with my Blood Pressure running high, I've been on meds for over 10 yrs and until Yesterday I had not had them since 3 days pre op. 1st 2 days after surgery I was getting best reading in years 3-6, it has progressively gotten worse ?? I take Nadalol 40 mg 2 times a day and Diovan HCT 12.5... After 5 hrs in ER Sunday they finally agreed to let me take 1 40 mg a day 1/2 at a time!! BP still way to high??? Go back for my one week check up today and need to know if any of you have had any high BP issues after surgery from coming off cold turkey?? I just don't understand that ? Skinny people have Hbp ? Please help me!! I can't relax and my stomach is in knots over it !!

Does it get better? I had gained 7 lbs of Fluid since surgery , Sunday when they weighed me ??? 4 days after?

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
