3 weeks today - and supposed to get 60 grams in a day - tough going since I'm trying to "eat" soft foods in addition to my shakes!

I get about 60, but sometimes struggle with that much. How do you get 100 in a day?

A start real early in the morning lol .. Wake up around 6 . Drink my Premier Protein which has 30 grams . Go to the gym drink another shake . And dinner time drink another one. In between I eat refried Beans and eggs or other soft foods. It's hard u have to constantly be drinking all day either Water or protein!

Yes it is hard to get it all in. I wish I could still drink Protein shakes...I have a hard time drinking them lately. Keep up the great work!

I get about 70-80 grams a day. 60 is from premier protien drinks (two of them), at least 10 grams a day from Greek yogurt and the rest from a combo of eggs, beans, Peanut Butter and cheese depending on the day. Tomorrow I'm trying chicken for the first time, wish me luck! Btw, I was sleeved Jan/5.

I'm making the chicken in a basil/parmasean dressing. Last night I made carrots in olive oil and dill but they were still not soft enough so I through those (already mashedish) with the chicken. I'm going to blend it up when I I want to eat it with a laughing cow wedge (heat it up) and eat it like a cheesy hot dip with a product I found that are baby food rusk crackers that only have 15 calories for 2 and they basically dissolve in your mouth. They add a good crunch to the puréed food. I've aten two with blended chilli and with hummus and it was great!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
