not hitting goals



Recommended Posts

i'm 3 months out and i'm struggling to hit my Protein goal of 60g a day, i'm worried i am going to become so ill. i hit most days i would say 30-40g. go ahead and judge away but it is very hard for me.

the shakes i'm so sensitive to the smell i cannot even get them up to my mouth to take a drink, i just need some advice or something.

i'm terrified to get sick :( even the premier shakes i can't handle, unflavored nope.

get some samples of Syntrax nectar Protein or powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein. I'm really hate the taste of whey protein (I can taste it in Premier shakes), but I can't smell or taste it in either Syntrax or Unjury products.

Unjury products you have to buy directly from them via their Web site. Syntrax Nectar products are available in a lot of places - through them directly, through Amazon.com, here at the Bariatric Pal Store, through Vitamin Shoppe (online and in their stores), etc.

Get some unflavored Protein powder - I have GENEPRO & unjury chicken. I add the chicken flavors to chicken broth or Soups. The GENEPRO mixes in other Soups (be careful of the temperature), yogurts, cottage cheese, puddings, coffee, teas too. Try adding the Premier Protein (4 ounces) into some coffee and Fairlife Protein milk is also good. I'm almost 3 Months out and these have helped me meet my protein goals. smoothie king also has a gladiator protein that I enjoy on occassion. I have tried the nectar protein but don't care for them very much.

i have tried the Water i hate it, i can't stand unflavored i'm so sensitive to the smell. i am forcing myself to drink at least 250ml of a Protein shake a day. so at least that's helping but not enjoying any of it at all. makes me want to be sick thinking about it

I am having the bypass will I be hungry or crave sweets after surgery?

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I had no hunger for about the first five months after surgery - then it came back. I was hoping I'd be one of those few lucky ones whose hunger never comes back, but unfortunately, I was not :-( That happens to most people - it does come back for most of us sometime within the first year or so.

Hard to say if you'll crave sweets or not. Some people do, some don't. I really don't think about them much, but then, I was never a huge "sweet person" even before surgery...

      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.
