Hector,

What procedure are you getting? I will be 4 months post op on 12/17. I remember being so scared at the end of the day it will be the best decision you will ever make. GOOD LUCK!

How was your first week?

Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App

It was painful...I didn't want to eat and barely wanted to drink I was constipated for a whole week I kept calling the surgery flr telling them the problem they kept telling all kinds of things to buy (so be careful with pain meds because that is what going to cause your constipation) if you have a recliner sleep in it that will be your best friend

I'd hate to do that. Would take me back when I was getting epidurals refrquently for bulging discs. My recliner was the only place I could sleep good. We'll that will add to my anticipated emotional roller coaster.

Oh another thing I had found it hard to get my 64oz of liquid by just sipping but u gotta do it.... make sure you get your 60-80g of Protein... thats something I'm struggling with now but I just ordered me some Protein shakes

I'm already taking Protein. Puritans pride is cool. Buy one and get 2 free deals. Saves a lot of money

Ooh yes at times I questioned myself as to if I made the right decision but I did because I feel better and I see a big difference and so does everyone else now I just got to get back to working out more

They're 35 bucks each. But Puritans Pride runs promotions like buy one get one free. Or buy two and get 3 free. They do it often, when they do I stock up

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
