I see two things on your list of regularly eaten foods that may be causing you problems. The first is Soup. What kind of Soup. That is a slider food for me because it is liquid. I can drink, ounce wise, way more than I can eat in solid food. 8 oz versus 2 oz. The other is "tuna salad". What is in your tuna salad? mayo? You can be getting huge amounts of fat and salt in your diet from both those things. Are you using something like myfitnesspal.com to track your food? I have to be careful because I have a fat tooth and it would be really easy for me to double my daily calories with fat.

I still don't understand how I am able to even eat that much? Everything I have read has said I shouldn't be able to eat more than 600 calories a day.

I am afraid to try meat this soon. I was going to wait another 3 weeks before I do that. The only thing that's made me sick since the surgery is the smell of eggs. It's weird because I liked eggs before the surgery.

The foods I have been eating are:

Cottage cheese

string cheese

Soups (getting so tired of soup)

really finely chopped up tuna salad

Protein bars

occasionally I will have a few bites of a potato when I'm craving something to sink my teeth into

All the foods I eat are on my list of foods my doctor gave me. They said Protein Bars are fine as long as they are low carb and low sugar (which they are).

200 calories is too much for a meal? How many should I be eating per meal? Also, I'm very scared of losing my hair. That's why I have been so diligent with the Protein intake.

I was sleeved on 1/31/13. I am down 16lbs to plus 12 pre op and I am thrilled. I am down 28 lbs in 28 days. How could I not be happy about that?

I eat 500-600 calories a day, I focus on high Protein low carb food. But, I make all of my own food. I eat eggs, pureed homeemade chili, ricotta bake and then I mix in some light greek yogurt and cheese. I feel great. Do I feel like I could eat more? Yes, sometimes. But I don;t. I use My fitness pal, track every calorie and I am happy with my progress.

I would reduce your calories, drink more fluids and avoid processed foods like Protein Bars.< /p>

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
