Are you looking for the BariatricPal Store? Go now!

Recommended Posts

I have a question. I recently was told by my NUT to try the Fairlife Milk, I finally found it at the store. I got skim milk as that is what I drink to begin with. I checked the date before I purchased and of course it is good for many weeks.

My problem was when I opened the container it smelled really bad. I checked the date. Poured into a glass, ok really doesn't smell. Tasted it. Tasted fine. I asked my husband to taste as my taste buds have been all over the place since surgery. he said nope its good. then I got him to smell when the container was opened! it is so bad the smell... is this just me? Is it just the container?? Has anyone else noticed this?

I was using a cheap blender too! The only thing driving me nuts is I am washing it all the time, so I purchased a Nutri Bullet because it has many small mixing \ blending containers with it! I tried it out last night it works pretty good.

I use unjury and premier shakes and unflavored Protein powder!

I do like blender bottle's for shakes too, and that way I take them to work with me and on the go. and I love the containers that go on the bottom of the bottles that hold your Protein powders or Vitamins etc.

I need food idea's so I am hoping more people reply.

Good Luck!

Do you use pinterest? I found so many recipes on there! I just type in bariatric recipes & everything you could imagine pops up.

Also, http://bariatricfoodie.blogspot.com/, is a good website. She gives you recipes for all types of foods.

Nylaj,

I do use pinterest and have found a few things on there, I tend to get stuck in a rut and eat the same thing over and over! So just looking for what everyone else does! for a varieties or things I have not thought of?

I will check the this blog, I just need to see or hear ... then of course I say " why didn't i think of that"

thanks for the information!!

      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.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
