Thank the Lord for Nectar!



Recommended Posts

I was sleeved on 7/20 and for the first few days didn't necessarily struggle to get in fluids, but it was a constant push all day long to get in approximately 40 oz of Water....I'm 5 days out and the one thing I've noticed in the two days I've been on "full liquids" as opposed to "clear liquids" (2 days post op) is that I'm sick of the after taste of things like Vitamin Water, propel, Powerade zero, etc. I had ordered some Syntrax Nectar samples and left the samples in my work office by accident. Just got to work and tried the Twisted cherry first. Oh, Lord, I think I may exceed my Protein goal (30 on full liquids) today by end of business! It's so yummy! It's funny how some of the most simple things are those that I'm most grateful for in this process! :)

You may have better luck -- I found it to be like any other drink and so it is an added bonus to get in the Protein as well.

This morning I had Twisted cherry and loved it. I tried apple ecstacy this afternoon and can't take it -- it tastes minty for some reason :) Loving the sample variety pack for this reason and bought it here at the bariatric pal store!

      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?
