aviiva 140 Posted April 17, 2012 are you supposed to be concerned with carbs during the clear liquid stage. I am not getting in many calories. I am able to get in soul my Protein and Water but not many calories should I be concerned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roxy.grissom 12 Posted April 17, 2012 I think at this point, we are supposed to be more worried about calories. My surgeon wants me to stay between 800 and 1000 calories on liquids for 2 weeks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

roxy.grissom 12 Posted April 17, 2012 Sorry, before or after the sleeve? New to this.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suzcomptime 17 Posted April 17, 2012 Sorry, before or after the sleeve? New to this.... Yes, the above is a good question along with how long are you on the clear liquid stage? I am only on Clear Liquids one day before surgery and from 2nd day after surgery until release from hospital. I am on liquids for two weeks prior and from hospital discharge until 2 weeks after....but not Clear Liquids.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
