How am I going to make 10 days pre-op and post-op with these shakes if they make me feel like this??? They are tearing my stomach up.

What brand shakes are you drinking? Using milk or Water or a premixed type? What's the issue? I was somewhat gassy from two to three shakes a day, but it wasn't horrible.

I would keep trying different brands. Most places such as GNC will let you exchange it if you need to. I still use crushed ice in mine. I have to have things I drink really cold, or I gag. And yes, sometimes it creates a spasam due to the cold. But really, keep buying new ones. powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury seems popular. hang in there......it does get better!

I just posted on another thread....sorry to be redundant....but I happen to love Isopure Zero Carb Creamy vanilla whey isolate powder. There probably are a lot of good brands but I like this because it's higher Protein, no carb and versatile. One flavor can be used to create lots of good shakes. Preop you can't do all the ingredients in the following, but I used the simpler recipes, all using one flavor of Protein Powder. I agree with @NORCALRN. Lots of crushed ice helps alot!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
