Welcome Kelly! At first it is hard to drink a lot b/c of swelling, but everyday will get better. I had a problem with drinking to big of sips at first and had to learn small sips constantly. Jean McMillian author of Bandwagon told me 1oz every 15 mins.and that helped. In 1 wk you will be able to drink close to 64oz. Best of luck on your journey! Post often!

Hoping To Get Back On Track.....

How much protein are you getting? My Dr would rip me a new one if I was doing baby food or protein shakes. He wants me on real food 3oz protein and then good carbs at every meal. I have a friend who cancels her appt with him b/c she knows he'll yell at her for relying on protein shakes and not real food. I'm suppose to have 60 gr protein a day. Best wishes on your journey! -
