Depending what your doctor says. I know I did not drink four Protein drinks a day in that stage. I probably had about 800 calories tops in the liquid phase. Right now counting calories is not to worry about for you. Healing is. You have to remember that if you are taking in so many calories on liquids it will be more once you add regular food. I would call your doctor to see what he recommends.

Sorry I didn't say that before! This app is a new thing for me.

I wanted to ask how many calories you were getting on the liquid diet? With 4 "shakes" and a bit of yogurt and a carb smart fudge bar I am at 1100. Just wondering where I stand. They didn't give us a number to stay near

Well, I was only allowed two Protein Shakes a day total 16oz. I could also have some broth. I was around 500 calories a day for 10 days.

I was on Clear Liquids only, basically zero calories, a week pre and a week post op. Not sure of any amount of calories, but I am positive it would have been less than one HUNDRED per day. But each surgeon has their own protocol.

I am only having 16 oz in shakes they are 1 scoop wonders. Lol The surgeon said no creamy Soups but broths and shakes are ok and SF Popsicle or Fudge pop was on a day. Just wondered but I see they are all very different. I am thinking I need to recalculate today it seems like a lot I am miscounted something
