I'm currently day 4 into my pre-op and have tried multiple Protein powders but can not seem to like any of them! I'm such a picky eater, so this is a very difficult task for me. What powders do you recommend? What tastes great?

Try a ready to drink shake, better tasting in my opinion. Premier Protein is my favorite and the favorite of many here.

Are you allowed fruit or nut butters in your shake? If so Peanut Butter banana with vanilla whey and vanilla almond milk is my go-to.

They just said to keep my sugar intake very low and have at least 30g Protein. I've been trying so many different variations of mixes and I can't seem to find the one I want to spend months drinking. ????

Try different things to mix in...PB2 or sf Torani syrups...they really help...I do vanilla Protein with unsweetened almond milk and a few drops of Folgers iced coffee drops...blend with ice and I have a frappuccino like I used to get from starbucks!

I'm on day 2 of my preop diet and haven't found a powder I like either. (I began taste testing a couple months ago) However, the RTD Premier Protein shakes and Muscle Milk shakes are so yummy I am fine with those. Yes, more expensive... but at least palatable. :)

DH and I have been drinking Premiere Protein pre-made drinks form costco. So far chocolate is the best tasting in our opinion. Vanilla isn't too bad, but a bit sweet for my taste. In order to combat the sweetness/chalkiness I poured it over crushed ice and it was much more enjoyable. I actually drank it much quicker than when out of a cup or the disposable container. DH has added PB2 to his drinks to help add variety to the flavors.

      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.

        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!
