<p>I have been struggling to get all my food in. I only seem to be able to get in 1oz of chicken or fish and then I feel like I have to throw up! On two occasions I got 2 oz of protien in but am getting really sick of protien drinks and yogurt. eggs make me sick as well. Anyone have suggestions. I take all my Vitamins and have been getting my protien by protien shots from Sunkist (27g) per shot. </p>

Sunkist Protien Shots are 27g of protien in like a fruit flavored Syrup, kinda like that 5 hour energy stuff! I used them a lot my first week to get all my protien. There are berry and Orange. I seemed to tolerate the Orange the best. Don't do one all at once but break it up into like 3 shots or so. I got them at either the Vitamin Shop or another site online. Just put in Sunkist protien shots and you should be able to find them.

Went to 1 month check-up today. Never thought I would ever hear I am not eating enough food! Need about 500 more calories a day. Also eating way too fast! Guess this is a learning experience. Doctor said I am learning to eat healthy now so in the future when I don't feel sick to my stomach to tell me I am eating too much I will already have it down! Excited to be able to have cheese and crackers soon! Happy Holidays to all of you!

I looked up those Protein Shots, and I'm going to have to get those! I am very naughty and don't meet my Protein requirements regularly... I just can't seem to eat enough. The only way I can meet it is with Protein Shakes but I am so over those right now! Everything I mention below I'm allowed to have, so it will depend on whether you can or not...

My favorite "treat" is half of a banana (a smallish banana) with a tbsp of Peanut Butter on it.

I also really love oatmeal, so I get the low sugar/weight loss kind and put a little unflavored Protein Powder in it. Otherwise it will taste weird if I put too much in!

Canned chicken & tuna seem to go down well also, but I can't eat too much. I make chicken or tuna "salad" with fat-free mayo and some onion powder. Once I'm allowed I'll add celery. I find I'm so hungry for protein I don't even miss the bread.

I love egg beaters all egg whites with fat free cheese and mild salsa... plain eggs would probably make me sick! I also put some garlic powder and paprika in the eggs to jazz them up and take some of the "egginess" away. :)

Bonnie, you can always add celery powder too. That is my plan once I hit the pureed stage, which is this thursday!

Had my 28 day check up today! Here are my Stats: Sleeved 10/30

HW: 250

SW: 241

CW: 229

I feel good except every time I drink or eat I get gas bubbles that come up and feel like they sit in my chest...like I need to burp but it just isn't enough to make it happen. Anyone else? My surgeon said he thought that may be from the swelling I still have. If it does not resolve he will have me do a "swallow" and see what it is.

      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.
