Premier Protein has already made shakes with 30gms of Protein and they taste good! sugar free Popsicles are still something I really enjoy!

Immediately postop I could not tolerate plain Water, lactose or artificial sweeteners. I drank Decaf herbal teas, diluted fruit juice, diluted Vitamin Water, diluted pedialyte, Protein smoothies and lactaid. I added unflavored Protein powder to every kind of broth and cream Soup I could find. I pureed and strained the thicker/chunkier Soups.< /p>

Everything tasted too sweet to me for about 6 months so I never did the Popsicle/jello thing. that's why I diluted all the sweeter drinks listed above and LOVED the savory soups and broths.

If you have The Vitamin Shoppe in your area they sell Syntrax nectar powder that you can buy by the individual package. This way you don't spend a fortune on a large container only to find you hate the stuff. My favorite is vanilla Bean Torte. Also, I used Unjury's chicken Soup mix. I still drink it sometimes. It would also settle my stomach if I got nauseated. The only thing you must remember with this powder is do not put it in really hot Water. It will clump. The container will tell you the maximum degree of heat.

I was fortunate that I never had issues with Premier Protein RTD shakes. I still keep them in my refrigerator so that if I'm in a hurry I just grab one & drink it.

I hate plain Water so I drink Crystal Light. I keep a large container in my refrigerator & try to keep my glass full. I also drink Decaf tea.

Getting in your Protein & fluids & watching your calories will go a long way in helping with your weight loss.

Syntrax Nectar, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury & Premier Protein all have web sites you can order from. This is what I do. I also like the website Bariatric Choice where I get my Jello & hot chocolate mixes. They have a lot of stuff. There are other websites where you can buy food.

Good luck with your surgery.

They make Powerade zero drops... They are yummy!! And Decaf iced tea has been my BEST friend... Especially considering the first few days I refused anything but Water bc I was SO nauseated. Just 6 days out I stocked up on plain Greek yogurt, Soups to strain, PB2, decaf tea, hint water(amazing) propel water, sf Jello, and lots of flavor packets for my water. It's so important to drink your fluids!!!! Good luck!!! Oh, and I stocked up on stevia too!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
