I had surgery may 20... I just can't seem to eat enough I can't even eat my Protein amount. I'm never hungry when I do eat it not very much fruit and stuff like that make me sick Pasta no good which is probably a good thing. But I can't seem to stomach a lot Protein Shakes I can't stomach them tried Protein Bars are way to sweet as well... I tried beef jersey and peanuts cause protein I just don't know what to do its stressing me out like after 3 bites if anything I'm done please help

We had he same surgery date! Definitely try the unsweetened protein or unjury protein. Those are much better than the Special K because they have more protein. 20 grams per serving. Have u tried eggs? tuna? There is a broth from Unjury that has a chicken flavor and it has protein as well.

Exactly! you have to take care of yourself. Try the liquids, they might help. Make sure you take all of your Vitamins too!

Also try double pasteurized egg whites. You can add them to any drink and it does not change the flavor of the drink. One pump is 3G of Protein. I will take a power aid and add 5 pumps which turns a 0g Protein Drink to a 15g protein drink.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
