Woo hoo on your low weight. That is great. Sorry about getting sick. I am struggling with that today. Having a liquid day. Thought these were over. Hope you feel better soon.

Strangely my protein shake made me sick on Friday. Same one I have ever day for the past n8 months without an issue, not sick since. Every time I think I've got it all figured out my pouch punks me. Feel better.

I hope you feel better. Can you tell the difference from a surgery sick vs. a virus sick?

So sorry! Is the the first time you tried the stuff you recently bought?

And congrats on the new low! You're gonna make ONEDERLAND before you know it! Wow!! Now I'm jealous! :)

I went to my 2nd to last appointment before surgery today, and my Dr and I had a great talk about a lot of things. I love him!

I told him I've heard thru my WLS family, that things that they ate before, or protein shakes they've tried BEFORE surgery...made them sick or didn't sit well AFTER surgery.

He said that's normal, and to just try some out now, and then see if I can stomach them later. He mentioned sometimes they just won't taste as good as they do now, and sometimes they do. Just a trial and error type of thing.

I feel great about the upcoming sugery, lost 2 more pounds pre-op, and he said we are looking at August for my surgery!!! Yeah!! Now an actual month to look forward to!

My last appointment before surgery, and to review my checklist, and their records of the Dr's sending everything in, is August 8th ,so if insurance takes the max time with my insurance as they are used to, I should have surgery 2-4 weeks later.

SOOO...either late August, or early September is what i'm looking at , by my calculations!

I'm trying the eat sensibly, watch my portions, and slow down process now, and the hardest....don't drink 30 minutes before, and wait 30 minutes after.

Challenging, but worth it to me! I just have to pump up my willpower!!!

Hope all of you Sgt, and KathiRay, feel better soon!!

Hugs,

Betsy

I don't know if it is ever over. Things that are okay today get me tomorrow. No That wasn't the 1st time I had used the Body fortress. In fact I drank some this moring after going to the gym and it didn't make me sick.
Never know, maybe drank ti a bit too fast, too cold or something. Am fine today.

hiya sarge..have you tried the EAS ADVANTEDGE in the premixed packages?...that's the ONLY one I could tolerate...and congrats on your weight loss!!...well done

Sorry your feeling sick :( congrats on the weight loss though that's awesome keep up the great work!!

Its so weird how our body reacts differently now! I had been drinking these HMR shakes before surgery and really liked them but I tried one the other day and it made me sick. Now I cant stand to drink any milk type shakes. I've been using the Syntrax Nectar which are more like flavored water. Hope you are feeling better!

Congrats on your weight loss! Only advice I can give would be to keep trying new things. You'll find something. If it keeps up, consult your doctor. You might have a hernia. Stay strong.

How far along are you? I only drink one protein shake a day usually for breakfast. I stopped drinking three a day when I could go on soft proteins. My WLS program doesn't want us relying on protein shakes and bars the rest of our life. A bar or shake it ok once in a while or for one meal but not for all meals I hope you feel better soon!

Yes can tell the virus sick from this sick. The virus sick will last a while, This sick just comes after eating and lasts an hour or so.

I know that is awful. What about adding unflavored protein powder to your meals?
