CorvetteGirl 78 Posted July 17, 2013 Hey guys' date=' my Dr says clear liquids for first two seems after surgery. How am i suppose to get my Protein in[/quote'] Try unflavored Protein in broth or unjury chicken Soup protein. You can also try Isopure zero carb clear drinks. A 20 oz bottle has 40g of protein. I have a couple of bottles that I haven't tried yet. Most people are not fond of it, but you can dilute it with Water and maybe add some crystal light. 2 nmck and KitKat40 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mmgraham102602 10 Posted July 17, 2013 I had mine on July 10. Its been fantastic!! Minimal pain. My experience has been picture perfect so far *knocks on wood*. I haven't been nauseous or have vomited, yet. I'm going that continues! I don't know how much I have lost but I know that I have. I am wearing pants that I clothes not get over my hips last week. I don't drink broth. My energy level its of the charts. I'm not sure of its mental or not. My only issue is sleep. Is been fleeting. But its been fantastic! I'm eager to start the next phase! 5 abranewme, nmck, qnz234 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JIllette 57 Posted July 17, 2013 Hey guys' date=' my Dr says clear liquids for first two seems after surgery. How am i suppose to get my Protein in[/quote'] Mine was the 11th. What I do for Protein is Isopure the mix. 1 scoop mixed with 6 oz Water is 25 grams of protein so I do three a day. You can get it at GNC or Vitamin store. The ready mixed ones are expensive why I did the powder. The fruit punch flavor is good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ms.Nya 27 Posted July 17, 2013 Got my sleeve done on Monday. came home from the hospital today and already 7 lbs down since Monday! Not too much pain but I have some good meds. I also take med for nausea which I really need. Overall I'm doing Ok, trying to get my fluids in, afraid of getting dehydrated. 5 qnz234, lanuzaanac, KitKat40 and 2 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
