Have you tried Protein Water? I found Premier Protein Water at Sams. It has 20 grams of protein in it!



Im still on phase 1 if the diet and I’m on it till I see the doctor on the 25th. I can only have Clear Liquids and sugar free products like Jello, broth, and Gatorade. How did the protein water taste? I just seen it the other day but I didn’t want to buy a full case till I try a single bottle!

It’s great! At least I like it. Plus It’s the best option to get the protein in during the clear liquid phase. I have been using them as a snack during my pre op and it has helped keep me going!

Why aren't you able to get all Protein in? Too full? Nauseous? I will be starting soft foods this coming week.

I feel full after just a few bites. Everyone has such different guidelines to follow! I had surgery the 8th and came home the 10th. My first 2 weeks I am to have only puréed protein for 3 meals a day.
I am supposed to try to get AT LEAST 65g of protein in and there’s no way my few bites of food 3x a day is gonna make that a reality unless I drink my Protein Shakes for all 3 meals and that can’t be healthy! Someone suggested protein Water so I’m gonna try that, that sounds like a great option. Thanks everyone

Anyone able to get all their Protein in? I am barely able to eat more than a few spoonfuls of my puréed Protein at every meal.

Yeah I'm finding getting alk the Protein Shakes down really hard. I'm up to about 450ml a day but my goal is 700ml. It's just so gross and I have no appetite xxx

I had a gastric bypass on 10th Jan and I’m not sure what was in my anaesthetic but I’m so physically restless and unsettled. I am full of energy and I am beginning to run out of things to clean or organise at home. Has anyone experienced this? Not that I’m complaining at all because it’s nice to have enough energy but I just find it odd.

I had the bypass on the 9th,,, it was a b***h!!! Omg the pain was horrid!! The worst pain was the gas pain that traveled to my chest and shoulders!! Got discharged on thurs and Friday in th er for severe shoulder pain,, worked up for clot,, negative,, just that gas trying to work out,, now things feel better but getting all this Protein and Vitamins and meds down is not fun! Once 2 weeks comes up I’m sure I’ll be over the pain and horribleness and I’ll be looking towards the future but damn, this was no joke!!!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
