I couldn't do shakes, so my second week consisted of high Protein milk and yogurt. I used fairlife and YQ.

I've seen a lot of people can't stomach it after surgery, so keep these in mind if you have problems.

Good luck!

Gabybab that’s exactly what I was worried about! Thank you! I was thinking about using almond or coconut milk

I'm not sure that those milks have enough Protein? Are you vegan?

Most people handle Protein Shakes just fine. Give a few a shot before you rule them out!

Have plenty of variety of liquids to choose from I had Gatorade Zero, unsweet iced tea, Diet Peach Snapple Tea, and sugar-free popsicles in addition to premade GNC Lean shakes (chocolate)

@Gabybab no I’m not vegan! Just thought of using those to mix my Protein with to not risk milk upsetting my stomach

@GradyCat Thank you! I’ve got like 200 packs of crystal light and some Jello and popsicles!

@sillykitty thank you so much! I will try! 🙂

And, although unlikely, you could turn out intolerant to either of these. Start with cheap, before you opt for the more expensive milks, okay?

For those who are may be unaware of the FairLife animal abuse case that is happening, please know the other options for milk that exist. What happens on the Fair Oaks farms is horrific for the calves and moms & the video that surfaced last week is unbearable to watch.

Please know the other options for fortified Milk & avoid FairLife at all costs.

      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.
