Try following an Atkins type plan or south beach and gradually introducing back carbs till u find that balance where u know how much carbs u can eat to still lose weight. My NUT and surgeon told me that when I get to the point where I can't seem to lose weight for weeks, I need to take a look at my carb intake and that's probably the culprit. Also watch the beans intake cause it's also high in carbs

I had to switch up the shakes with chicken broth, I needed some salt in between all that sweetness

Not sure about your research but the protein shot im drinking is made from whey isolate which is a highly absorbable form of protein...and as for ur body not being able to absorb much protein at a time....well it takes me the better part of 2 to 3 hrs sipping on the shot to consume it all...to each his own however u can get ur protein in

Protein shot is a concentrated forma of protein rangeing from 25-50gms of protein in 4oz fluid....my Nut recommends the shot especially in the first few days post op when getting any protein in is tough

Ok I got sleeved on Monday woohoo!!! All went well was discharged the next day but struggled a bit when I came home with pain and gas. My pain was when I would drink so I was only able to drink 2 cups of water and about 40 gms of protein shot...today the pain is a little better was taking my liquid Vicodin every 4 hours on schedule to get ontop of the pain...today I didn't need to and the gas has started to dissipate. Only had a bit of nausea not much, only up to 3 cups of fluids right now but if I only get in 4 cups today (the hottest day ever even for Cali) I am ok with that. Not too worried about protein today will try harder tomorrow for protein.

Getting sleeved tomorrow woohoo!! On clear liquids only now, for the second day, yesterday was ok except I had no energy and was drained but i wasn't hungry. I made a pitcher full of juice using a protein shot adding a lot of water and a sprinkling of crystal light, ate sugar free jello, sf popsicles, and chicken broth, btw the best tasting chicken broth imo, is made from chicken base adding hot water to it, tastes so much better than plain broth....good luck everyone!
