Need some ideas please... Can't get in what is needed...

Ok all, I had RNY on April 5th, came home that wed, started with severe heartburn on Thursday, called Doc on Friday, went to office and they re-admitted me that day with dehydration and heartburn.. Received 2 bags IV fluids bolus and Protonix IV drip. Felt 100% better, came home Saturday, felt good Sunday. That's a summary of what has been going on with me. So anyways, my problem is I can't get my protein in. The supplements give me sooo much gas, bloat that I am too full to even drink my fluids. What do I do? I am looking for suggestions from those with similar experience. I am able to get my medications and vitamins in. I can stay hydrated as long as I do not take the protein. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Oh by the way, 20 lbs gone since Monday. That is insane! Down to 237 now already. I appreciate any feedback you could provide. Thanks. For those pre-op... still no regrets, had no pain after 2nd day or needed pain meds. Oh, PS- had first BM in the hospital Saturday am. How often post-op is the average, since we are on the liquid part. Thanks all.
