Agree, I am so sick and tired of sweet, I got chicken Soup flavored Protein Powder and now add it to all Soups. It tastes OK.

Can anyone tell me a good threshold for sugar and fat grams? I don't want dumping syndrome but I want to add things to my shakes.< /p>

My dr suggests the 20:10:10 rule...

At least 20grams of Protein

Less than 10grams of sugar

Less than 10grans of fat.....

Hope this helps

Ok I'm still in the hospital. O go home tomorrow. What I have noticed is the midnight crew is extremely lazy. They don't answer any of my request. I'm going to let my Dr, know tomorrow because this is ridiculous. My ac is not working I can't even get a fresh/cold cup of Water. Yet they tell me to get my fluids in. S,dh????

On the losers bench! YAY! I've had a miserable night but its almost over. Today is Water very slowly and with God's blessing some broth tonight. My phone is my entertainment because I will *not* pay $10 a day for the t.v. I hope you end-of-the-month losers are doing ok too.

Two weeks out and my hips and knees aren't killing me! I can walk without crying. Granted I haven't had to work a full day yet but I've done a lot of walking and no pain !!

Today I had a Laughing Cow cheese wedge and it was sooo good. Can't have crackers yet so I ate it off of the wrapper. Popsicles have also helped with the urge of wanting crunchy food. I need to get more exercise in though.

Make sure you read the nutritional value on those because my nutritionist told me those are actually bad. That's she prefers for me to just eat regular just way less of it because of the Ingredients.

Good luck tomorrow. And welcome. Nothing really to b nervous about. Everyone is different but I have had no pain, I had my surgery on the 6th and the only real pain I had was from my Iv, the three times they poked me and when they would give me medicine in it, it would burn so bad I would grab my arm. But other than that nothing. Let us know how u r doing. Good luck again!!

      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.
