New to the group
Hello All,
My name is Ashley, I currently live in Minot. I just had my surgery 2 weeks ago and am already so happy. If anyone has any advice I would love it. Also has anyone out there tried the Unjury shakes? I was using GNC AMP but my new tummy does not like it one bit and I have to find something new.

Welcome Ashley!!!
Congratulations on being on the Loser's Bench. You will get lots of advice, but the best I can give you is to follow what your doc says. Also, I do this:
Weigh and measure my foods
Protein first, veggies, then fruit (when you get to that phase)
100 ounces of water per day (work your way up)
Vitamins (as per your doc)
Exercise, exercise,exercise (start with walking, always follow your docs recomendations)
Feel free to post any questions you have. There is a great bunch of people in ND and on the RNY and MAIN boards of this site.
As far as the proteins, I have not tried unjury, buy I really like the Syntrax Nectars. YOu can get a sample pack from Bariatric Pantry or other online sites. I do like some of the GNC products and the nice thing is they let you return what you don't like.
Good Luck
Steve

Welcome Ashley.
Congrats on taking back control over your health. Hang on tight your going to be in for a bumpy but wonderful ride.
We are a small group on the ND board here, but we have lots of information to share, ask away!
I am not a good source for the protein shakes. I have yet to drink one. I did some Carnation breakfast drinks in the beginning. Once I was able to get my protein in by food, those went away.
I have tried the unjury chicken soup broth ( powder pack) and it tasted ok.
Remember to keep sipping and get in those fluids, they are more important right now then even protein. You do not want to become dehydrated.
Your protein counts may start off lower as your not able to consume all that is needed. Don't over fret about this, it will build up as you go along. Your body has some built in stock/reserves right now, so you will be fine.
Let us know what else you want info about
Again, congrats and welcome
