14 Days Out. Am I Eating And Drinking Too Much?



Recommended Posts

I am 2.5 weeks out from my surgery and I often think that I too eat too much, for example, today I had a 4 to 6 oz protien shake for Breakfast some chicken broth w saltine crakers for lunch. dinner was chicken and stars Soup, and I also had about 5 pieces of sandwich meat with cheese and I have had Water to drink today with a 8oz glass of juice. I know I am a little further out than you but I still get a little concerned.

My only thought is are you getting in enough Protein each day. This is the most important to keep your body functioning well.

I got sleeved on 9/18, I started stage two on 9/19, a typical day for me includes the following.

Portion sizes should be 3-4 ounces or the size of your palm.

i also try and drink addtl Fluid throughout the day.

This is all guidlines by my nutrtionist, and i am down about 30 pounds so far.
