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!

      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.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        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.

      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!
