Hmm I've had absolutely no issues getting liquids down and I drink everything ice cold weird I have been getting heartburn too but I think it's bc I've been having Tomato Soup. I had an issue with heartburn before the surgery. I had some scrambled eggs this evening with some cheese and the went down fine I just count to 30 in between every bite I tend to eat fast. I also do a lot of burping

I had Water, and didn't like the taste, so I would add a little Crystal lite to the water, and sometimes a little apple juice. I believe it was the additives that gave me the heart burn, and it sounds like if I get the Protein in I will feel better. All I have is the Isopure, and I can not even get a sip of that stuff down (gross). Is there another Liquid Protein drink that actually taste ok?

Is the heartburn and burping called gerd? Or is that reflux ?

Heartburn can be reflux the doc said the burping is bc when eat or talk you swallow air and there's no room for the air anymore over time your body will adjust to the amount of air you take in and the burping will get easier

I was also sleeved on 3/13. I am still having trouble with getting liquids and I can begin to think about getting Proteins in. I still feel a spasm everything I take a sip of any liquid. And I have been having heart burn really bad here lately.

I was sleeved on the 15th. If I get a quarter of a slim fast in I'm good. I make sure to take the Zofran first, the protonics helps with bubbles they said, so I take that at night. I'm getting weak. I want to go back to work Monday, but I don't know.

My husband just bought me some premier drinks and I can get that down really good... the only thing is that it said serve cold and my body reacts better to room temp or warmer liquids.

You can drink it room temperature also, just tastes like warm flavored milk. Definitely better cold, but if your body cant handle it cold, deink it at room temp. Its all about getting in your Protein right now :)

I was sleeved pn 3/16. I had trouble getting my liquids in. I just have no desire to swallow drinks right now. 6 days out of surgery I went to the weight control center to have 2 bags of I.V. injected in me and 1-B12 shot and a B1 shot. It sure helped with the weakness and the I.V. helped with my dehydration. I'm working on getting in Protein and more liquids the rest of the week. I was weighed at the center and actually gained 1 pound since surgery. Am I discouraged? No, my body is in shock and so am I. It will get better..I'm sure of it!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
