Liquids don't fill me up

[Ericka5109 2]

I had my band to sleeve revision on January 8th. I'm reading a lot about people feeling full from the Water. I can drink any amount of any liquid and it doesn't affect me. I'm starting to worry. Any one else with the same problem?

The most common reason for not feeling full during the liquid phase is that you may not be getting enough Protein. You need to be getting 60 grams of protein per day. This can be achieved thru Protein Shakes and drinks. Most protein shakes are about 20g and I like the Isopure Zero Carb drinks which contain 40g of protein.

Thanks for the response....I will try to choke down the Protein shakes. I have the Isopure grape frost but it still has that thick yucky taste.

Grape Frost is unfortunately one flavor I did not like. Are you using the powder or the ready to drink bottles? Get the bottles.. way better! I did not like Passion fruit either.

Love: Apple Melon, Blue Raspberry, Icy Orange and Mango Peach. Alpine Punch is pretty good and have yet to do the Orange pineapple banana one.

I have the ready to drink bottles. I'll have to check out some of the other flavors.

I had my revision on the 9th, and I am not having any problems with my Clear Liquids. I am beginning to worry that my sleeve is too big or is leaking. My diet plan from my surgeon and nut will not allow me to start my Protein supplements until day 7. I hate feeling hungry!! Best of luck to you!!
