How much should i be able to drink?



Recommended Posts

I use GENEPRO flavorless Protein crystals in blended Soups and pudding. My Dr said 1-2 oz Water every 15 min and 1-2 oz Protein Drink ( I enjoy Premier Protein from costco 30g protein in 11oz.) For gas try Gas-X dissolvable sheets. They are a refreshing minty taste which helps.

Hi

Have you heard of Isopure? It is a flavored clear liquid that has a lot of Protein in it. I have read many sleepers use it to get their Protein in. I'm getting my sleeve Tuesday & am getting super scared.

You can also get Isopure at the Vitamin Shoppe. It's pricey -- and frankly, I found it to be the wors thing I've tried to drink in my life (until I took the liquid pantoprazole the hospital sent home with me).

But some people tolerate it, so maybe buy a couple of flavors and see?

I use Premier Protein liquid Protein Drinks from costco and really like them. Sometimes I put one in the blender with frozen fruit and they are really delicious. I also ordered GENEPRO unflavored Protein Powder to add to Soups, purees and puddings. They both have 39g of Protein a serving. Huge amount of protein!!

Best Wishes!

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
