For a tasty Protein Drink I've found I like adding the crystal light flavor packets along with plain whey Protein isolate. I don't like the typical chocolate or vanilla Protein Drinks. This way I can have lemonade, fruit mixes etc and I can mix it up everyday

That's a great idea w/protein shakes. The typical whey Protein is not going down for me. Not agreeing with me either. Looking for another way to get it in ad that's helpful! Thanks

I had trouble with the shakes until I tried whey Protein isolate. I use the Now brand, I buy it on Amazon. It dissolves really well, I hate when other Proteins have clumps.

Another thing you might want to try I'd the Syntrax nectar Protein powders. Mybariatricpantry.com has a sample pack of a bunch of different flavors for like $20. If you like fruit flavored drinks that brand has alot of options

@lennon15. And how are you doing? Eating? Keeping it down? Pain? And what are you eating? Activities?

My highest 299.which I also was made to go on 2 week Diet prior to surgery. My current is 255. I was told I was doing OK. I lost 19 pounds at my 2 week follow up.

I had my two week post-op check up Wednesday and I lost 31 so far. That's including my pre-op weight which was 388 and my current weight is 357.... My incisions are healing perfectly and my doctor said that Ian doing great. I still have pain from time to time with one of my incisions which is the larger one that is right above my rib cage.

Hi! I had my surgery on June 30 and for the last 5 days I have not lost a single ounce. Did you have that too?

Are you able to tolerate more food now since you are farther out? I'm not even a month out yet and sometimes I feel like I don't want to eat and drink anything. I force myself to do so. I don't want to end of in the hospital.

I've been in a stall on the scale for the last 3-4 weeks. It sucks!

Are you trying different types of chicken? I had grilled chicken from KFC and I did pretty well with it. I was a little dehydrated so I had to get me some Pedialyte to drink. It does not have to be chicken try a different type of meat that has a lot of Protein in it. What about yogourt? Peanut Butter?
