Hello everyone! I recently under went gastric sleeve surgery on Aug.22nd and am recently unable to stomach the Protein Shakes I normally really enjoyed. I have not gotten my 60gms since the day before my surgery and I know that's a big deal. Does anyone have any advice or ideas?

Thanks

Since you just had your surgery I would probably call your Dr. and go from there. That is what they are for. That is what I would do. Unless you feel more comfortable contacting your bariatric dietitian. They work for you and your success.

Try Isopure ready made blue raspberry - it is a clear Protein Drink that is a little tart and has 40 grams per 20oz.

You might get better answers on the POST op forum. Good luck!

Maybe try the unflavored Isopure. I did that in the beginning because my premier Proteins were to thick and heavy for me. It took me a few weeks to get the Water and Protein in that the doc required. As long as you keep trying you will reach those goals. Don't sweat it to much in the beginning, just do your best.

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
