Recommended Posts

Can anyone give me any pointers on good things to eat and drink. My weightloss is moving. I did go thru the 3 week stall but I realized im not eating or drinking enough. Water is boring but I will drink it. I tried tge Unjury unflavored Protein. Unless I didnt mix correctly it was an epic fail.

I know that with the Unjury, the temp needs to be under 140 degrees. Herr is my water bottle, a friend made it for me.post-236461-14236440959292_thumb.jpg

First... congrats on your loss so far... you're doing great!

Some things I relied on a lot not so long ago... Individual servings cups of hummus, thin cut deli meats, salami, and something I still love and use quite a bit... Justin's Nut Butter packets. I eat the Honey-flavored one (the sugar and calorie counts are about the same as the regular, so no big deal.)

I also enjoy Lean Body brand Protein shakes. They're of the ready-to-drink variety, you can get them on Amazon, and they have ZERO sugar. The vanilla and banana are my faves, but the chocolate one isn't so bad either. I'm just not a big chocolate guy to begin with. There are two sizes... a smaller one with 25 grams of Protein, and a bigger one with 40. Especially in the earlier days when I still couldn't eat some foods, these helped me quite a bit.

I'm so happy for you!!! You are doing GREAT!!! I am using GENEPRO unflavored Protein, 1 small scoop has 30 grams of protein and you can put it in anything including coffee and Soups. I mix it in pudding as well.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
