10 days post op and I'm hungry!!!!

Look, can't do the protein drinks, I run to the bathroom to much.  And that bullet thing is really nasty.  It seems I can't do milk.  I have been drinking the K20 protein water.
I go and see the Dr. on Tuesday.  Please pray for me!

Will do my sleeved sista.......

I did not experience any hunger pangs that early out.

Try some Isopure - its got about 40 grams in a 20 ounce bottle - I would drink on one all day and it tastes sorta like powerade and that kinda stuff.  I liked the lemon tea flavor - you can find it at GNC.  Down side - its expensive, but worth a shot if nothing else is working for you until you can eat solids.

I'm praying for you.     I can tolerate the Syntrax Nectar (Fuzzy Naval or Strawberry Kiwi, the Caribbean Cooler was to sweet and just yuck)   They are around $30 per tub.....

Protein is soooo necessary for fat loss.   I hope you find something that you can stand.

I second the emotion on the isopure, especially the clears.  its about $4 per bottle, but worth it.  its 40 grams per bottle.  2 bottles and you have ur entire protein intake for the day.  The best flavor is the Orange, Strawberry, Bannana.  yummy

Also, in the next phase, the Isopure Dutch Chocolate rocks.  tastes just like yoo hoo!

Good luck

Ms. Princess,
Hold on my sister. I know that the beginning of this journey is challenging. I was there. But please look towards the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. I couldn't do milk either. Isopure or some soy based products are out there. Your doc will direct you towards an appropriate alternative. You did not come this far to be manhandled by protein drinks. In a little while you will be able to adjust your diet and be within your guidelines and satisfied at the same time. Once the liquid diet was complete....avocados became my best friend!
Take care and hold on !!!

It's going to take a few weeks for your Ghrelin production to drop off.  Until then you are going to be hungry.  Once you get to solid food it will be a lot better.  Hang in there.  I thought I was going to starve right the first two weeks post-op.

Thank all of you so much!  All post has sound good advise.  I drink the k20 and will be bringing back the protein bullets to exchange for the Isopure bottle drinks.

Thank you again,


Ms. Princess
