Hi all. Have been following group for a few months now and have posted for info once. But now, if you don't mind, I want to be "family". I saw the surgeon, psych, and nutrit. yesterday and it's all systems GO! Surgery date set for Dec 2 and I'm so excited I can't stand it.I will be driving y'all nuts with questions.
First, I was a bit put off by nutrit. Seems she wanted to sell us their vitamins and liquid protein. Anyone hear of Ptoteinex? Just how much protein do we need per day? I have a thousand other questions but it's all just rattling around in my brain. Thanks in advance. Tunafish Posted on 11/03/09, 12:11 pm |

I never bought anything through the nutritionist. I buy everything possible at "normal" stores (vitamin shoppes and the grocery store).
They have more and more sugar free items taht make life post surgery so much easier!

Welcome!!
Good name too because after surgery you will want to eat lots of it!! I was told that I need a minimum of 64 g of protein per day. I am 4 weeks out and having a hard time trying to get it in. I do not like the protein drinks and would love to hear more about the liquid protein. Welcome to this site - the people are amazing and can help you with any questions!
