Almost two weeks and ready for soft food advice

It has been almost two weeks since the surgery, I am so in this and enjoying the process. I am working out and feeling great and have

lost a total of 15.8 pounds. I have a lose it icon on my phone and log all my workouts and liquid intakes, and to watch the graph of the weight

going down is very satisfying. My incision are healed and I spent the day river snorkling and trying to chase trout with a net, hilarious and active

and no trout for my partner's dinner. One of my best friends is the swimmer Diana Nyad and had a great work out with her today. Check out

BravaBody work out cd's very inspiring. I don't know how to get in all my protein with the switch to soft foods, any advise of how you get 60 grams of protein?

Do you stop the yummy protein drinks completely?

Hmm that is an interesting thought. I am flying out NYC from LA on Saturday and have protein packs to bring with me.

So far today after lunch and breakfast I have done 23g of protein. It is strange to chew again.

I plan to keep on doing a protein shake a day I use the body fortress whey protien from Wal Mart it is not exspensive and has 26 grams of protien per scoop so I just make 1 shake with 2 scoops in it and a cup of skim milk and that gives me 52 grams of protein for the day plus it gives you a several vitamins as well and I was worried about getting enough vitamins post op as I would probably not be able to swallow the large vitamin pills I have been taking. I wish you all the best on your journey to a healthier you :-)
