Lately every time I drink one it feels like it just sits in my stomach like a rock. I so want to give them up but I know I can't. Do they do this to anyone else?

They do it to me now and I haven't even had surgery yet!!! I'm not sure how I will handle this after surgery! My NUT has approved me to use the Body By Vi shakes with 1/2 scoop of unflavored protien. I can stomach those better than some of the others.

And the Unjury unflavored can be added to anything (not boiling hot stuff), like yogurt, tuna salad, chicken salad, egg salad, and any liquid. I put it in my Decaf iced coffee a lot. It dissolves completely & has no flavor. Yesterday I mixed it in a little homemade guacamole.

This happened with me when I was using 8 oz of non fat milk to mix with it. It just felt way too heavy on my tummy.

I stared cutting it with Water. 4 oz of Water and 4 oz of non fat milk and changed my Protein to BlueBonnet...its really smooth and mixes very well. No grit to the taste... But very pricey.

I always mix with milk for added Protein. I can only drink so much though or I am way too full. Im so glad I can tolerate them and have never had a problem.

      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'. ???

      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!
