I tried Premier Protein and it taste like drinking a milk shake. It's really good.

I use Premier Protein that you can get at Sam's or costco. They taste exactly like chocolate milk out of the dairy case and the great thing is they are 30 grahams of Protein each. The vanilla taste just like the chocolate to me but have a little powdery feel so I just get the chocolate now.

I can sometimes handle muscle milk light. Mostly (now post op) I am drinking Isopure. Not a lot of calories, but good Protein and not terrible. The flavors that are the red/purple/mango&peach are the ones I can drink. I add Water to make them less sweet. They are online & at GNC.< /p>

I tried several and I found that Premier Protein's are the best out there. Reasonably priced too.

I like the premier Protein as well......someone suggested adding 2T dry, nonfat milk and 2T of PB2 (a Peanut Butter powder) to their chocolate shakes.......I was getting bored with the Premier Protein drinks, so I put that all in a blender with the chocolate, and it was quite yummie.

The nice thing about the premier is they are ready to drink, grab and go

I LOVE New Direction shakes, Soups and puddings.

Also GNC powder ( vanilla) mixed with diet Snapple. ( wide mouth jars are a plus)

Awe...don't feel bad. Just keep trying. Maybe you can add one of the Torani flavors to it such as caramel, hazalnut, or vanilla. Some say they have tried that which make it better for them. Plus they are sugar free.< /p>

      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!
