Ugh these protein shakes



Recommended Posts

They seem to go through me. Even tried making with lactaid milk today. Using whey. Tomorrow I get powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken broth delivered. I hope that is good?

Anyone else like this? I'm 13 days out.

Have you tried Premier Protein shakes pre made? I had the trouble you are having before my surgery and then switched to the Premier and things went ok. Hope you feel better soon. Have you tried different flavors? Wish I could help more. Just hang in there.

"liquid in, liquid out" is common if you are still on clear/full liquids. I agree with above posts that it might be worth trying a different brand than you have been using... but honestly, I had about 5 days of that issue when I started really adding the Protein drinks- but wasn't yet consuming any solids. I think it just happens sometimes when there aren't any solids to add any bulk.

Have you tried the Isopure Zero Carb Protein drinks? They have 40 grams of Protein per bottle and are fairly easy. No blending. I'm a month away from surgery and wanted to try different types of Protein Drinks.

I also suggest trying a different brand. Something is not agreeing with your belly.

However, do not let this condition go on too long. Diarrhea can lead to dehydration VERY easily and quickly. Dehydration is nasty stuff.

Maybe a call to your surgeon's office just for a recommendation and to keep them up to date about with your condition and progress. Can't hurt. I'm sure your experience is nothing new to your surgeon. (at least I hope you were not his first patient) :)

Feel better and let us know how you're doing.

The Isopure drinks are good. No problems. Hoping the chicken broth from Unjury will be good. Am I supposed to not drink 30 min before and after a Protein Drink?

I just asked my NUT this question and the answer is no. You can drink right up to the shake and right after.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
