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!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
