I reflect back on how miserable I was being morbidly obese and I drink it down. Nobody said this was easy and sometimes you just have to suck it up in order to get the desired outcome.

I couldn't/can't stand Protein Shakes and I have tried about 3 or 4 different brands on the market. I just ordered bariatix advantage unflavored off Amazon and I mix it with diet snapple. It's good!

How far out are you? I am 5 weeks out and when I went on solids at 3 weeks I started phasing out the Protein drinks. I just make sure I get my target 60-80gm each day by food. Is this a possibility for you?

I got it at Walmart in Protein section. I have only tried the fruit punch, I'm not going to lie it does not taste great, however it's better than the shakes, I'm at week 4 and I started on it at week 2 because I could not drink the shakes. It was recommended by my doctor post-259782-14388001881719_thumb.jpg

When I got totally sick of the Protein shakes, I had some scrambled eggs. I was a day early from going to that stage and my NUT didn't really get too upset.

My nutritionist told me that if I just can't stomache another Protein Drink, it is fine to skip a day. It worked like a charm. I think it took the pressure off, plus she said she doesn't want it to feel like punishment.

      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.

      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.
