7 days post- op gastric sleeve, just want to chew on something !!!! I've been on the clear liquid phase and can't seem to get the protein in It took me 3 days after the surgery to be able to keep any fluids down. Now I can drink chicken broth and crystal light till the cows come home but can't handle the protein drinks (I hate milk so shakes don't work). I've been sipping isopure protein drinks but don't seem to make a dent in the amount I need. I'm experiencing a lot of reflux and gas pains as well as episodes of shaking uncontrollably, is this due to not getting the protein in ? I just want to start eating egg whites and stop the protein drinks. Is it too soon to be able to handle egg whites? The good news is I have no problem exercising and I've lost 22lbs since starting the pre op diet 2 weeks prior to sx ( my sx date was nov 16). I'm turning into a 'hangry" person, trying to stay positive but running out of energy any suggestions would be greatly appreciated !!!!!
