I didn't take my vitamins for about 30 days. I tried, but got sick each time. I had to go to a group appointment of one-month out people. No one was taking their vitamins bc of pain or nausea. It's slightly better since I can take the capsule now.
At the second day, I didn't think anything was easy! Maybe ice chips. I just concentrated on trying to get one ounce down at a time.
Good luck! And I hope you don't float away!!

I was sleeved Wednesday and today was my first day with few issues about my pills or liquids. I take 4 huge gabapentin pills and 1 tums size med. I split them all in half and spend about 90 min swallowing them

Sent before I was done...I started by B12 today. I'm also able to drink about 1000 calories and 150 g of Protein. Still have what feels like contractions of gas but gotta wait till number two!

I also take the rest of my pills no problem. liquid oxycodone made me vomit.

I actually feel like I could have had more protein for now they want me to get 60g of protein but shakes are tough sometimes

It gets easier. The first week is super hard. Your body is adjusting (and pissed) and it seems like everyone struggles with different stuff (shakes, Water, liquids...). Don't beat yourself up, take it easy. Do the best you can while you heal up. Before you know it - the shakes will go down smooth and you will be introducing new stuff. Try to focus on keeping hydrated and getting rest. The other stuff with come... GOOD LUCK and CONGRATS!

My sneaky way of getting all the Protein I get is I add a scoop of non-flavored 15 g protein to any broth or yogurt I eat. I know I'm eating about double the protein most people eat but I was on about 200 g before

      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.

      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.
