I am 4 days post op, on liquids only, feeling very weak, I started last night with the worst diarhea I could ever imagine, each time I take a sip of anything, diarhea! I called the MD, he said it was possibly due to the whey in the unjury that I am using, can anyone recommend a good soy based protein suppliment, Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated

HI Jane Sorry you are having a hard time. I use unjury and love it and haven't had any problems. Try Bariatriceating.com for some ideas. The stuff on that website has been helpful to me and very good. Good Luck, Tina

Are you mixing the unjury with milk? You may now be lactose intolorant. That is very common after this surgery.Good luck Eileen

Congratulations on your surgery, Jane! I had terrible diarrhea as well right after surgery. It got so bad that I got dehydrated and ended up in the ER on day 7 postop. I took a dose of liquid imodium and that settled things down some. I needed one more dose and it cleared right up. Check with your surgeon before you try it- Once you start the full liquid phase, it'll get better, too. Good luck! Becky Jean

I am having the same problem. I am 8 days post op and absolutely everything I take in comes right back out. I am not financially stable to go to the health food stores and get the special kinds of supplements, and the one I have here is supposed to be mixed with milk...I am wondering if tehre is a chewable or dissolvable kind of protein out there.
