How many grams/day is considered low carb for us?

Hi, i was sleeved 2.5 weeks ago, started mushies in my third week, but usually i can not eat more than two large spoons of ANYTHING, but this fruit salad i downed in 10 minutes like it was nothing, this makes me question how my stomach works, i'm confused, are fruits just going right through me?

i am 2 months out, and sometimes i vomit without having ate anything for a long time ( of course no real vomit/liquid comes out because my stomach is empty, but i still do it as if i were to throw up something) i hope you understood what i meant. i dont know if its my stomach enzymes filling it up or whats the deal. it happened 4 times so far

but i dont experience heartburn or chest pain, could it still be GRED? just feel nausea similar to the one i get after eating, and my stomach capacity is less. do i need to take my PPI pills everyday or only before meals? because my instructions say take twice a day before meals. but sometimes i go the whole day without eating so i dont take it.

i guess its different for everybody, i didn't feel much pain after i woke up, and when they discharged me, they gave me painkillers that i never had to use. but the guy next to me was CRYING and screaming for his life, he BEGGED the nurse for more painkillers. so i don't know.

i once went 5 days without food, on water only and my body kept trying to throw up 😕

i did for 15 days as the doctor instructed now i am done with them

this forum is my bariatric team

Eating became a chore for me, its not enjoyable at ALL, its become this chore i have to do, and i barely can get 55-60 grams proteins a day how do you do it?

i am disappointed at how much protein there is in some "high protein foods" like an egg has only 6g of protein, thats NOTHING, why is it considered "high protein"😫 same with lentils and beans (except red beans) and cheese i need 20-30g of protein per 100g of food, thats what i consider high protein

yes

these are not dollars 😂 its a different currency. it roughly costs about 4 dollars

yup lesson learned, proteins ALWAYS first, 60-80 grams daily

i bookmarked the link, the first app you linked isn't compatible with my device unfortunately, but i downloaded the fitnesspal one. thanks very much for your help and resources

when will i be normal again? when will eating stop being a hard task? i don't mind the small quantities, i just hate wondering if the next bite will make me throw up

alright i will stop buying fruit salads, too bad the lentils, beans and tuna all make me feel nauseated after 1-2 spoons maybe i'll stick to liquid protein (shakes and Greek yogurt) for 1 more week.

i assumed fruits = healthy and the calorie count is not that bad, is it?

i follow 4 week program: 1st week clear liquids, 2nd week full liquids, 3rd week mushy food, 4th week soft food. i don't count my protein intake but i try to at least eat one high protein meal per day ( tuna, protein shake, fish etc...) i don't think i hit 60 grams of protein most days. as for fruits, there is no mention of it in my nutrition booklet, but because fruit is soft i assumed its okay, and i didn't have any problem. i don't have a nutritionist or a doctor number, because i did my sleeve in a government hospital so there isn't much follow up and contact between patients and doctors/nutritionists, they give a you a booklet and send you home, but hey, at least its free
