I use 2 LOVE 2 drink these Premiere Protein Drinks/Shakes whateva they r....but since I had my surgery, I can't STAND them....Lord pls help me with these shakes!

Lol I heard that after surgery your digestive changes so that's probably why... It can be for awhile temporary or you are just tire of them... You should try other kinds of Protein Shakes and see ;) luck
Try the Unjury chocolate Splendor. It is fantastic!!!!
I really liked this mixed in a cup of black coffee - tasted like a mocha :D. I'm pre-op and not sure I would try this for a while after surgery though!
Awsome!!! Didn't thought of that... I guess I will be doing that with my coffee too... That sounds yummm! I love the chocolate splendor from Unjury ????????

I was also on the 8th. I drink as I want to. I don't drink either 30 minutes before or afore meals. I think the whole idea of sipping is so you are sure you get enough, so drink away. Don't gulp big chugs or you will overfill your pouch without knowing you are doing it.

I was sleeved on the 7th. What do your meals consist of? Today was the first day I had soft/puréed foods. Couldn't eat but maybe 10 tiny tiny bites.

I make sure not to gulp, just always feel thirsty but popsicles do help. I don't start pureed foods until Tuesday...looking forward to it!

I wasn't supposed to start until Monday but I was doing so well and was told to try and work things in slowly when I felt ready. But I am still taking it VERY SLOW. ☺️

. I think it's important to do mechanical eating, you may not be hungry or thirsty but your body needs it

It took me a week and half before I felt a little hungry. But you need some energy so try to get your Protein in. It really helped me. I did have a problem and still do getting my fluids in. Just hard to remember to sip all day. Funny b/c I never had a problem before.

      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.
