I tried to go off the extra protein shake but had a problem relaxing and falling asleep so I went back to getting 100 grams of protein a day. I enjoy 2 shakes along with egg whites, chicken and yogurt. I usually take in less than 800 calories a day and It works good for me. I'm losing weight though I only get weighed in once a month

On Thursday I had a regular scheduled doctors appointment. They weighed me but I don't believe their scale cause it's not the surgeons office. Anyway, then they took my blood pressure and oxygen saturation level. It wasn't until after they were done that I realized they used a "regular sized" blood pressure cuff on my arm. That's my first of what I'm sure will be many nsv's. Lol

Thanks for your comments and congratulations to you. Can I ask how much Water you drink to equal the amount of Protein intake? I was told only to have 75 g and now even less when I was moved to a soft diet. I love the protein though Btw I've only lost 26 lbs since 2/16 but I'm only 5'2 or 5'1 as the doctors office has my height lol

Yea I heard the same thing from my nutritionist. Two Protein shakes and ff milk = 52 grams. The rest comes from chicken at lunch and usually fish from dinner followed by yogurt. Thanks for the encouragement

I had an RNY on 2/16. I was wondering how much protein everyone gets in on a daily basis? I try for 100g but always think it's too much. I told 12 lbs the first week. Won't get weighed again until March 26th when I go back for my 1 month appt. I eat very little and have notice some changes already. Thanks
