Alrighty everybody I need some advice! I had my surgery June 27th and have been struggling to get all my Protein in. I loved the premier shakes pre op but can't stand them now. So I bought some unflavored Isopure powder yesterday. Tried to add a scoop of it to my mashed potatoes tonight but I did something wrong and it came out horrible lol. So what is the best way to get all the protein in? Or some of the best foods to add the powder too?

Unflavored powder in sugar free pudding was the only way I could really stand it. Add a little at a time to make sure you're not making the flavor/texture too unbearable to consume! Also I bought the Isopure rtd in fruit flavors and bought corresponding Powerade zero flavors. I'd mix some Powerade in with the Protein Drink to make it have less of an after taste

The GENEPRO has been helpful to me. It's flavorless and you get a lot of Protein for a small scoop. I bought it on Amazon.< /p>

I was gonna buy some GENEPRO but I keep seeing bad reviews about it too.. Then the lady at gmc suggest the Isopure powder. The only thing I've managed to do that I can drink so far is mix it with some Water and put a squirt of watermelon flavoring in it. But still, I would like to find a much easier solution.

Ooh I tried that in mashed potatoes as well big mistake. I like unflavored in Water (with lime) or broth so far. Trying it in brewed iced tea later this weekend.

I also could not stomach some of my shakes post op. It took a week or two to get back to some. PB2 powder helps.

I love love love (right now) powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken flavor.

Also I got the unjury starter pack to try some flavors. It is a personal think I only like their chicken and unflavored and I am not even trying strawberry because that is not my thing.

I have 4 individual packs of 3 flavors. If anyone interested DM me and I can drop in envelope to you!

Ps: I tried GENEPRO and their company site and story are just too bizarre but to each their own!

I was drinking Isopure but it was making me sick then my NUT told me to dilute it with water.... Much better ! Also okios Greek yogurt triple zero has a lot of protein- lived on the Vanella - still do. Another tip is Iso 100 Protein Powder - very high Protein low sugar and carbs mixed with 25 calorie almond milk...delish I get it at the Vitamin shop.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        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!
