mi75 1,235 Posted June 28, 2014 (edited) of course i did it over about 4 hours and added ice a couple times...but still, i'm feeling good about the restriction i feel i have plus the ability to control my intake to teaspoon sips AND still manage to get in my daily requirements!

Jersrose43 837 Posted June 28, 2014 Awesome I did one shake yesterday and managed 6 ounces over 4 hours Today was 4 ounces over 3 hours Will do another one later Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JJ Schlic 9 Posted June 28, 2014 Terrific. Yesterday I was also at Day 4, and I struggled to get 4 ounces of Protein in 1 1/2 hours. This morning, Day 5, I was able to take 4 ounces in 1 hour. I have a kitchen timer set to go off every 15 minutes, as a reminder that "it is time". Best of luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Missbaisah 23 Posted June 28, 2014 That is awesome. . Question: is anyone drinking anything other than Protein Drinks during your first few days post op?? Is it because you have such small sips the reason it takes so long? Just curious.. Thanks and keep up the good work all !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mi75 1,235 Posted June 28, 2014 my first 2 days i was clear liquid only and only AFTER i had my leak test done at the hospital. now i am full liquids and also having Jello, yogurt, pudding, cream Soups, milk. today i managed to do TWO 21 oz Protein Shakes in the morning, both mixed with extra milk and ice and 2 bottles of Water, so my liquids are met. had yogurt for Breakfast, cream of potato Soup for lunch, sugar free pudding mid-afternoon. tonight it's more Soup for dinner and sugar free Jello later. i'm getting the hang of it. 1 Jersrose43 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
