My surgeon says no protein supplements until week 5. Does this sound right to you?

Exactly--what he ^^^^ said. Please check before going "off plan". Post and let us know. Will do! Thank you! -

No I don't have any other problems. Actually was a 30 BMI when I got the procedure done and this is her standard protocol. I had no complications in surgery and I'm doing very well. My doctor is a Surgeon of excellence Dr. Liza Pompa in Tijuana Mexico. -

That's exactly what I'm thinking. When I asked my doctor when I get my energy from she said the body is an amazing thing don't worry you will get your energy. My doctor is in Tijuana Mexico she's a surgeon of excellence but this I don't agree with. I put in a referral for another doctor in San Diego California where I live. In the meantime I'm going to go ahead and drink a premier shake. I'm feeling kinda weak. -

My surgeon was the exact opposite. He wanted us to prioritize getting in all of our protein as soon as we were cleared for fluids (after the leak test).He said there is no physical reason anyone couldn't drink 3 premier Proteins in one day. I credit getting in my 100 grams of protein every day with the ease of my recovery and success so far. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Yes I went to a international center of excellence and my surgeon is the 13th of 18 surgeons of excellence. Stil, I'm already looking into getting a doctor locally adapt to discuss this diet and for my follow up Care. Thank you. -

How long ago did you have your surgery?I'm sorry you are feeling that way. I had my surgery in a BCBS Center of Excellence so I totally trust their knowledge and their diet care. There is any way you can find a local doctor or NUT that helps you? I just think that no having any proteins for 5 weeks does not sound right. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Agreed. That doesn't sound right to me. Everybody's plan is different, though -

I'm starting to get a resentment with my doctor. I just looked at my paperwork and she doesn't want me to start adding protein supplements until week 5! How long ago did you have your surgery? -

Wow! Wish I had your doctors. I'm not suppose to add protein for two weeks which will probably be quite difficult because of the lack of energy factor. Thanks for the information. My doctor is in Mexico and I'm Hoping to find one in San Diego to follow up with. Hopefully he will allow me to go on full liquids before week three like my surgeon is requiring. -
