I was just talking to my trainer about shakeology today. I do not use it but hear that it's good but a bit grainy in texture. I really like Dynamatize Protein Powder, it's mixes well with Water or milk, not grainy and tastes fabulous!

I tried it in the past, preop. I just couldn't tolerate the taste. Mixing it with almond milk did help, though.

I have tried it and only like the chocolate flavor. it is a bit gritty but blend with ice in a blender. It does not contain enough Protein to be a Meal Replacement for WLS patients according to my RD. I have a friend that sells it and I tried bought single packets to try and show my RD for her approval. It is really expensive and I didn't feel it was worth the price.

My coworker sells it. I got strawberry and chocolate. I made strawberry and it was sickeningly sweet. I checked the sugar and wow! The sugar is a lot and the carbs are a lot! They are grainy and not tasty and I won't do them again.

My gym sells it - I tried a sample and thought it tasted like feet. It's also ridiculously expensive.

i have a friend who uses it and says she loves it. but i dont know that she has much to compare it with. she has lost 150 pounds, but isnt a WLS patient.

i have a friend who uses thrive and raves and raves about it.

I make a great shake. Try this:

1 cup almond or coconut milk

Icecubes

1 tsp cocoa powder

1 tsp matcha powder

1 tsp hemp seeds

1 tsp chia seeds

2 tsp gogi berries

1 egg if you like

Blend and drink! Much better than paying for a shake that tastes like feet! Lol! All of the ingredients can be bought at bulk barn.

      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!
