Protein shakes after surgery



Recommended Posts

I had my surgery on July 22. Whenever I try to drink clear Protein Shakes I get sick and throw up.

Is this normal? Water now is my only friend.

I was sleeved on July 20. I couldn't get the clear Protein Drinks down either. I didn't throw up, but I could only take a couple sips. I was glad when full liquids came along. Premier Protein shakes are great! Hang in there!

I was sleeved on July 21 and Water not Protein Drink has been friendly. Recently added SF kool-aid to the water with hopes that it'll go down. I spent the morning doing a drool like vommit because I didn't want to experience a full vommit.

When I was on Clear Liquids I liked the ProtiDiet liquid concentrates. They are 15 grams of Protein per packet and rather than dilute them, I poured them over crushed ice and ate them like a slushy. They were very helpful in helping me get my protein in early.

I was Sleeved Tuesday and am doing well. Living mostly on Isopure Protein liquid, Water, broth and small amount of SF Jello.

Gas and bloating are going down a small amount each day, Gas X doesn't seam to do much. How many strips at a time do you take?

Maybe I need to walk more.

What is your best tasting favorite brand of broth?

Thanks,

Craig

      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.
