I'm due for my band on June 23 and I've started shopping for my new lifestyle. Has anyone used the boost shakes and, if so, what kind and how have u liked them? What r some good Protein Shakes out there? I'm always on the go and need something convenient.

I use the zinzino balance shake....it has done so many great things for my, it is more Vitamin than a Protein Shake, but I use Protein rich milk products and fruit with it and that works so good for my. Helped my getting rid of joint pain and depression as well.

My doc said don't buy Boost shakes due to their high sugar. There are other Protein Shakes that give you more bang for your buck. My doc carries the Bariatric Advantage brand. They taste great, are only 160 cal, and have around 25 grams of Protein each. The ready-made EAS shakes are really good too. They are a little pricey, but I actually found them at Big Lots and got a really good deal.

      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.

      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!
