I started with as much protein as I could comfortably Handel and now 6 weeks later I'm still all protein rich foods. My carbs are extremely low maybe 15 a day. I don't eat anything that doesn't have protein in it ..at all.

@@Babbs Well ok! That answers that! Thank you! -
I eat. I catch myself trying to nibble but my nutritionist said no (so bossy!) so I make myself eat at least twice a day and shakes between for my lack of food and protein. @@Essence46

QUESTION- CAN WE EAT PUDDING AT 4 DAYS POST OP?
Elode replied to Shari71's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
@@Shari71 Nope! I just did what I could. I wasn't about to push it. By week two/three I was getting in the protein, 6 weeks later it's still hard to get all that water in but I do my best. Between my decaf tea, protein shakes , and bottled water all combined I get it but not by just Plain water. Water takes me forever! -

I did with unflavored protein mixed in, but as always consult your DR and see if it's allowed. -

Elode replied to LightlyMyDarling's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Only time will tell unfortunately. It's a small price to pay though and it will grow back! Hopefully your smaller waist line Will not! Don't stress! -
@@WL WARRIOR Yep I tried it again after all and it was good. You may need to drink it more often. 2.5 weeks is too long!

Oatmeal? Who wants to make that small a batch?
Elode replied to OKCPirate's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
That's a good tip! I make my egg whites with turkey sausage and cheese in muffin tins! It's much easier and already in appropriate servings! Plus convenient when on the go! @@OKCPirate -
It just means you have more fat deposits in your liver ....that's the short of it. It's normal to have fat in your liver but to much of it prevents your liver from doing its job properly over time.

@RubygirlThe most common cause is alcoholism. Almost all heavy drinkers have fatty liver disease. Other causes are toxins, certain drugs, and inherited metabolic disorders. In many cases it has been associated with high blood cholesterol, obesity, and type 2 diabetes. : )

Premier protein shakes 3 (90grams) a day after the first two weeks, now I'm 6 weeks out and I eat food plus two shakes a day so I always get 90+ grams a day. You may not get it all in in the beginning just keep working on it, it will get easier.
