aaeactive_gm 20 Posted April 12, 2012 Hello Guys, I'm 3 weeks yesterday and on pureed/blended foods. I am lost. I was cleared to have some at 2 weeks out because I was not able to get my drinks in, so he told me to try it. It worked ok but now I feel like I'm empty all the time. Here is my routine: Wake up 5-Pepcid 11 oz of Protein by 11 (30 gr) 2oz of tuna blended or egg salad blended by 1 (takes about 30 min or more) 11 oz of protein by 4ish (30 gr) 2 oz of tuna blended or egg salad blended by 6 ish (takes about 30 min or more) 8 oz of protein by 9ish (15 gr) And I getting about 45-50 oz of Water a day. Should I up the 2oz or am i just missing something. I does not feel like acid, and its not like hard hunger pains, its just empty. I am very tired because he above is only about 400-500 calories a day and I'm walking several miles a day (3-4). Help!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fluffylibra30 323 Posted April 12, 2012 Myabe you need a few carbs? not sure what your diet is allowed at that stage since every doc is different, but when i have too low carbs i feel empty and lightheaded. on the puree stage i would have some potatoe Soup just a few oz every few days. made me feel better.

smileen 17 Posted April 12, 2012 Lack of carbs very possible I was a diabetic before the sleeve and they told me to get at least 50gm of carbs because It was easier for me to go into a ketosis metabolic state the nut. said to use juice 1/2 strength mix with Water I kept that by me all time to get in my water and carbs and I felt like I was getting a treat. Good luck in a couple more weeks it will feel like a walk in the park! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aaeactive_gm 20 Posted April 12, 2012 Good thought because I'm getting less than 19 every day and less than 10 sugars. I'll try a little potato Soup it's on my list just not my fav. Thanks Guys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
