Favorite Unjury flavor and sleep apnea...



Recommended Posts

What a combination! Anyway going to the pulm dr tomorrow for my sleep study follow up. Got a call from my surgeons office this am to see if I have a cpap machine since my report said that I have severe obstructive sleep apnea. Although I am not surprised by this, I'm kinda freaked out hearing it.

powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury, what kind is your fav? I ordered choc splendor, chicken Soup and unflavored as well as the sample set.

Anyone use Bariatric fusion? I ordered their sample set too.

I like the chocolate splendor mixed with skim milk heated up with a tiny splash of sugar free salted caramel Torani Syrup. A real treat and perfect Breakfast as I'm less than 2 was post op. I also have the chicken broth one. It was just okay alone but was like a yummy gravy when mixed with Water and cream of chicken Soup.

I was just diagnosed with severe obstructive sleep apnea last week too! I was SUPER freaked out/depressed about it until Friday when I got the actual results back in the mail. Turns out my AHI events were 36 an HOUR! I read that and it snapped me out of being depressed/freaking out. I realized I am glad this is happening now so I can be better. The NP also told me that it's better to be diagnosed with this now because it will make surgery easier for myself and them.

All in all getting the apnea taken care of is a good thing. From what I understand you will get a better nights' sleep. I have also heard that you will be happier and less tired throughout the day. Good luck! :)

Thanks guys! I am waiting on my approval and will hopefully get in on April 21. I got my Unjury stuff today so at least I'm prepared for my 10 day preop. How do you mix the chicken Soup with Water and cream of chicken. Equal parts?any way to jazz it up w/o the cream soup?

I love my cpap machine! I was so tired all the time each hour of the day was a chore, but sleep did not refresh me. The mask is no big deal once you get over being self conscious. It was not a magic cure all for weight loss or high blood pressure that they want you to think it will be, but the value of waking up refreshed is worth all the inconveniences. Make sure you get one with that adds moisture to the air.

I was recently asked and asked and asked again to have a sleep study done by my PCP. Believe me when I tell you that I fought him for months. His persistence finally convinced me to have the test. They told me I woke up over 300 times a night. OMG, you folks are nuts is all I could say. Snake oil salesman, this is the latest way to rip my insurance company off is what I said.

That darn PCP kept pushing, finally I agreed to try the machine. Honestly, it is life changing. I wear it nightly and have no problem admitting I was totally wrong. Rested, refreshed and ready to rock and roll daily is how I feel now. I had no clue how poorly I felt. My surgery is now scheduled for 4.18 so I may not need it for much longer but trust me when I say my inclination is to wear it versus not wear it.

My favorite Unjury flavor is chocolate Splendor. Mixed with PB2, skim milk and ice in a blender is terrific. I also make a Protein Shake with chocolate splendor, Torani salted carmel Syrup, a section of banana, skim milk and ice.

. What is their reason for saying it will make the surgery easy and easier on them?

I am really not sure. I meet with the surgeon next week and plan to ask him about it. Maybe it helps when you are put under?

      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!
