Sarahjane79 397 Posted March 7, 2014 That's awesome. No problems here. Sleeved Feb 3rd. It hit 29 lbs this morning and 75 lbs total with pre op diet. I'm taking in around 70 ozs of Water, 700 cals and 80 grams of Protein per day. It's going to be an awesome summer for us. Here is a picture of my progress. The two pics are maybe 8 woks apart and around 40 lbs. Those pictures are amazing! That's Some great progress! 1 BWaltD reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like u need to be and if one doesn't work try a different one. I have to take protonix twice a day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't want to eat to drink anything except for Water. Every time I get or drink anything my stomach gets more upset. I was also thinking it could be an acid issue. Since I started taking my Prilosec regularly my stomach has felt much better. 2 SuperFab and kgguess210 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was sleeved 2/17.I'm drinking 3 Protein Shakes a day (yes at a month out) Muscle Tech has 20 grams per scoop. Add 2% milk and I'm close. I've been experimenting with what foods I can tolerate and I'm there. The fluids is a challenge some days. I really need to focus on drinking. I am now one of those water bottle carrying people.

sammyblingss 84 Posted March 9, 2014 Would u guys consider the Protein Shakes liquid? ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sarahjane79 397 Posted March 9, 2014 Would u guys consider the Protein Shakes liquid?? My doc does. Anything liquid counts as overall liquids for the day, and Protein if there's some in the liquid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jencovi 261 Posted March 9, 2014 Would u guys consider the Protein Shakes liquid?? Do you mean as Water? My doc and NUT do not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sammyblingss 84 Posted March 9, 2014 So I try to sip my lean shake from GNC throughout the day in between meals. Is that normal? Even though it's a "meal replacement" as my mom said? She thinks I should drink it as a meal and not throughout the day. I think i can because it's Protein and a liquid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In my first few weeks post op I was lucky to get one shake in during the day. Sip sip sip and get as much in as you can. And don't forget Water too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least that's what I have understood. I do not meet my protein goals without shakes yet. Not sure how I totally missed/didn't read that last sentence.
