How do you get in 64oz of Water?

I've been getting my 64oz in since the beginning. I start sipping as soon as I wake up and stop about an hour before bed. I typically get 72-80 oz a day.

Had surgery on 6/25 and I'm eating Tomato Soup, Protein Shakes and sf pudding, Greek yogurt because of the small amounts of each thing, I'm not getting enough Protein and have been getting up every morning feeling weak. So today I went to supplement store and got some unflavored protein to put in my Soup and a new flavor for protein shakes hoping to encourage myself to eat more protein. Haven't been doing the best with drinking either. Have to step that up.

How do you get in 64oz of Water?

I wake up at 7 am and go to bed at 10pm so I do about 4oz of water every hour....I know its TMI but my Doc told me to get my urine as pale as possible thats sign of good hydration. :-) so far mine is almost transparent

Had surgery on the 25th as well. The most I've drank is about 16 oz and maybe just a swallow or two of Protein. Even the unflavored protein that used prior to surgery does not sit well. I'm just not hungry. Down 13.80 lbs since surgery.

Hello

Im not sure what I understand for " doesn't set well" what do you feel exactly? So far I have not vomited anything :-) so Im happy

Aline... If I don't brush my teeth immediately upon waking, I could gag! My mouth feels gross most of the day as well.

Mine too and the Protein Shakes don't help, they seem to leave a horrible aftertaste in my mouth. It seems like I've been brushing my teeth 10 times a day!

Try a vegetable puree' date=' such as sweet potato, carrot, or cauliflower, with some unflavored Protein Powder added. You can add some chicken broth, butter, milk, or other seasonings. Also, I like pumpkin pie, so I was thinking of trying some pumpkin puree with vanilla Protein powder & pumpkin pie spice. Could do an apple pie version with applesauce, vanilla powder, & apple pie spice.[/quote']

I've been doing 2oz of fage 0% greek yogurt mixed with 2-3 tablespoons of motts natural no sugar added apple sauce and sprinkling some cinnamon in with it its approx 6grams of protein and tastes just like apple pie...you could prob add a little protein powder if you wanted to kick it up, but even without its a satisfying little treat :)

I had the surgery 1 week ago today. Feeling pretty good so far...still a little achy, but each day I feel leaps and bounds better. Here are my stats so far:

Highest: 333.4

Pre-Op Diet Start: 274.4

Surgery: 266.6

1 Wk Post-Op: 261.2

Notes: I'm 5'6" tall. I did weight watchers for 1.5 years before approaching a doctor about the surgery. Weight watchers tapered off and I was struggling to continue losing. My pre-op diet was 2 weeks...and I wasn't perfect the whole 2 weeks, but I really tried.

      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.
