I try to stay at 700 calories I get in all my Protein and Water the problem is I don't want to go over 700 calories but I am having a difficult time due to believe it or not I like Protein shakes which are high in calories I just tried oh yeah shakes which are 220 calories. I have one for Breakfast really I guess I am just asking for suggestions on what to eat to stay at 700 and get all my protein in I also tried the oh yeah Protein Bar really good high in protein but also high in calories not carbs or sugars.

Sent from my SPH-D700 using VST

A) how far out are you? And B) I don't see it as a big deal if you go over 700 calories because of a Protein Shake, but I would try to stay under 1200 calories a day if you're anywhere near maintenance... Also, what has your Dr said about this?

I agree you should talk to your doctor. Mine has me well above 700. Everyone is different, and has a different path.

Unjury chicken broth flavored Protein Powder (1 scoop in 8oz water) has just 90 calories, and provides 21 grams of Protein. Also, you can add unflavored Unjury powder to most anything...80 calories per scoop and 20 grams protein. I drink chocolate muscle milk...the regular formula has 20 grams of protein in an 11 oz drink, and 180 calories. The lite formula (it's sugar free) has 30 grams of protein in a 17oz drink, and 200 calories. I typically split those in half, so 15 grams protein in 100 calories. You could also try Isopure drinks...low calorie, and very high protein. I can't stand the taste of Isopure (It's wicked sweet to me), but many others like it.

Google Unjury...you order it directly from their website. You can order single packets to try flavors before committing to a big bucket, if you want. Best of luck!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
