Chocolate Slim Fast HP drinks...



Recommended Posts

Ok, so I am doin my own version of the pre-op diet ... my bane is the chocolate slim fast Protein Drinks. They taste disgusting and vile but I know I need the Protein, so I have been choking them down fighting my gag reflex each time. Well, finally hit on an idea to make them more palatable. I blend it with a banana and 1tsp of cocoa powder.

Still tastes rotten, but it didn't hit the gag reflex ... so I guess I found the "cure" for now ...

Oh yeah .. the cocoa powder is sugar free ....

the two week pre-op was a struggle, but the Clear Liquids was even tougher. If you really want to appreciate how GREAT Slim-fast tastes, go two days on a complete sugar-free, liquid diet and after the two days you will think that the Slimfast is from the Cold Stone Creamery! I was on the Veggies and meat only for the pre-op and by about day 8 I was gagging on vegetables, I could eat no more! Then when I was on the clear liquids I was craving meat and vegetables. Is that crazy or what? I guess I'm the kind of person that always wants what I can't have.

      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.
