I’m a few days post op and I’m finding it very hard to get my Protein. Since popsicles are the only thing I can really tolerate. Anybody ever tried making protein popsicles ? I found a recipe on google I was going to try or does anyone have a recipe.

It's a terrific idea. I'd just use protien shake or that flavored protien Water.

I found one in “the complete bariatric cookbook and meal plan”

chocolate pudding Protein pops
One 3.9 OZ Package of chocolate flavored instant pudding
2 cups cold low fat milk
2 scoops chocolate Protein Powder

I haven’t made it yet but I am going to try a chocolate Protein Shake and the pudding mix!

Thank you ! Will try it

I have been having the same problem. I solved it with GENEPRO and some 25/75 split of light pineapple juice and Water.

Try This
3/4 cup of Libby's Pineapple juice
1/4 cup of water (warmed in the microwave for about 20seconds)
Mixed in 1 scoop of Genepro (the genepro mixes better in a warm liquid)
Combined and poured that in to my popsicle molds.
Very good and helps me get my Protein in
Hope this helpsJPEG_20210412_140413_1030005777117944164.jpg JPEG_20210412_140434_6424581739048882727.jpg JPEG_20210412_140534_3577166121454945612.jpg

      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.

      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.
