Thanks for asking. I found whey Protein Shots at Vitamin world. 3 oz shots. 49 grams Protein. Put them in the blender with ice. Makes a great protein filled slushie. 3 servings at least.

Today is post op day 4 for me and it feels like the fog is lifting. sleeping a ton, which is to be expected but today I was able to handle an afternoon of shopping.

Now my abs feel like I've been doing thousands of crunches!

Today I've also gotten the most liquids in so far, since getting sleeved on Tuesday.

Today is day 4 for me too gomekast. I am feeling pretty good. My spirits are good. I am also sleeping a lot and it feels great. I don't have much interest in eating or drinking, but I am doing my best to get my liquids in. I think I am only getting in about 40 oz. yesterday and today. And my Protein intake is like 10g... not very good. My strategy is to get liquid in and try to get in what Protein I can. But all in all, I think things are going pretty smoothly.

So, yesterday I was able to go without any pain meds all day. This morning I woke up feeling like a truck ran over my tummy! I walked a ton yesterday and felt pretty normal.

Had to take another dose of roxicet this morning it was so bad. Anyone else have this happen?

I'm having a hard time getting my 48oz in, but really pushing myself to get there.

My dr said do as much as I can but don't push it. I only got 1 shake in yesterday today a 16 oz Gatorade and half Protein Shake so far. I think I will get 2 in today. The gas pains are what is holding me back for now.

Today was day 3, getting fluids and Protein in was a bit harder today. I still have a couple of oz of my Protein Shake to get in. I've felt pretty good overall, tired, no real pain and thank goodness, no nausea. All incisions look good :)

I was sleeved on 10/22/13 at 7:30 AM. Best thing I ever did for myself! Was not sick and haven't taken pain medication since I came home. I never was a "drinker" so hard for me to keep sipping Water and getting the Protein Shakes in every day. But doing my best after threats from my nut about IV fluids for dehydration! Happy with the weight loss so far and dreading the "3 week stall".

Sleeved on October 17th and things have been great, no nausea and very little pain post op.

I'm still struggling to get my Protein shakes and Water in. I'm allowed to have 1 cup a day of soft food broken up into four 1/4 cup meals. I was told that I need to be taking in 1,000 calories a day which seems impossible. I do good to get 500-600 in. Any suggestions??

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
