Hi Marie,

You'll find tons of answers to your questions all over this forum- everyone has a different experience and story to tell. It's important to remember though that what works for one person might not work for you. I stayed in the hospital only one night, but have a friend who stayed for 3. I drink the Premier Protein shakes- she can't stand them. I've never had much of a problem with getting fluids down, while others take quite a while to retrain their bodies. As far as "what happens after surgery", there's tons of personal opinions and experiences for that too here- each surgeon has some different requirements, just as each body heals differently. Gathering information is very smart, bearing in mind that this is your journey to take. Keep us posted :)

I was in the hospital three days. Started sipping Water almost immediately. I make my own Protein Shakes with recipes from the bariatric foodie cookbook.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
