Any suggestions on a good protein powder?  I'm using Sixstar (choc). The flavour is ok, but I find it incredibly sweet. It only has 2 grms sugar and 30 grams protein which I like, but way to sweet

Had my surgery on Friday October 28. Feeling good so far. The day of surgery was rough, but the next day was so much better. Glad surgery is over.

Had my surgery Friday October 28.  First day was bad, but now I'm at home and doing well.  Surprising the energy I have.  But I wont over do things, and following my diet plan.

Had my surgery Friday October 28. First day was hell, but second day seems better.  I love this forum, taking your advice and walking and moving. No appetite though.
