JRfishes 19 Posted March 30, 2015 I am now starting my 5th day since the surgery and no more meds. I haven't had any issues with Isopure, crystal light waters or watered down Protein shakes. I have to work at getting the volume in, drinking from small shot glass or plastic cups has helped me from taking to much at a time. Most of the painful gas from the surgery is gone and boy am I glad, that was uncomfortable. Sneezing from my allergies has been no fun, but it art of the deal. I am looking forward to puree food, interested in being able to add some different tastes to the food.< /p> Over all I am very happy with my progress, it is great to be able to see the successes of others also.

agalindo17 331 Posted March 31, 2015 I got mine done March 23rd still recovering I don't feel hungry wish is good but I need to take the Protein I tried the shakes and my new stomach did not like it :/ any other suggestions?What did you mix your shake with? From what I understand a lot of people have an aversion to milk after the surgery. I was sleeves on the 25th and I've been using Isopure drinks to get in my protein. I'm using Water today but it was too sweet and do I love sweets but that was way too much lol so I might try the bars instead and see how does go Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From what I have seen most people find that their wight is up after surgery due to all the IV fluids & surgery in general. Don't get discouraged yet! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NewgirlfromMd 63 Posted March 31, 2015 I got mine done March 23rd still recovering I don't feel hungry wish is good but I need to take the Protein I tried the shakes and my new stomach did not like it :/ any other suggestions? How are you doing now? Have you tried lactaid milk, or lactose free milk? It is gentle on the stomach but still real milk. There is a medical grade protein you can order ( depending where you live I'm sure) called Unjury. They make a chicken Soup flavour that you mix with warm Water. It is pretty yummy and it is easy to drink. If you don't have access to Unjury, you may be about to find something else. Try different Protein Shakes until you find one you like. Good luck!

JRfishes 19 Posted March 31, 2015 Conrad's Marcy, relax and have a speedy recovery. Also stay away from Facebook while on the narcotics, I posted some strange things that I don't recall doing. I blamed it on my account being hacked, just avoid it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
