How do you all get all of your Protein in? I try, but I'm still on full liquids and I get so full I can't stand it. Any suggestions?

I drink 8 oz Protein shake which contributes toward my daily consumtion. You just have to drink one or two of those a day on top of your Water, I also drink Isopure which has Protein. It's hard but possible.

Sorry my post went on here so many times. I appreciate the advice. I just get so full on those shakes and I'm having a hard time finding the Isopure, I guess I'll look online. Tomorrows a new day right?

I do two things: 1, I eat Greek Yogurt...I usually buy it plain and mix a flavor in....Greek yogurt has about 13-15 grams of Protein per serving. 2, I fill a 24 ounce mixer cup with Water, a flavor packet like crystal light, one packet of sugar sub, and then two scoops of plain Protein powder. I keep this with me all the time; my schedule is to eat some sort of thick or dairy based "drink" during one hour and a Water based in the next, so...every other hour I drink 4 oz of my water mix. By the end of the day, that gives me 43 Protein on top of whatever else I have had...Hope this helps.

I get my protein from the GNC website...

That's right. Also once your able to eat yogurt I have a tip: Get the greek non fat yogurt (nasty plain), add strawberry (extract) (or whatever flavor you prefer and splenda to taste, stir well, taste just like regular yogurt with lots of Protein.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
