judyoz 240 Posted May 4, 2015 It is amazing how today I can take a normal size gulp of Fluid. Up till now It was only tiny sips, took forever to get the shakes down Isopure makes great popsicles . I have more energy than before surgery but tire easily. Egg drop Soup strained if FABULOUS and sits good. Very cheap to buy already made too. I had 90 grams of Protein today, without any difficulty. Earlier post op was about 40 grams. Life is good........ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Casey235 83 Posted May 4, 2015 That's great! I still struggle getting in 90 at almost 4 weeks out! But I can't gulp, still have to sip most things or it hurts! Congrats! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pampam12 2 Posted May 4, 2015 Hi , I am one week post sleeved also. I was wondering would you mind telling me what you are drinking in a day? I think I may be drinking to much. I can drink Water very easily then I will have some Protein shake maybe 1/2 cup and then wait and have the rest of the shake. I really think I could just drink it right down but I try to make it last about 15 min. Then I will have some strained low-fat Soup 1/2 cup again but I feel like I could drink the whole can in about 15 min. Are you feeling full with what you are drinking? The binder I am going by says 1/4 cup Protein Shake but it just not enough are you able to drink 1/2 or more with each small meal? Thank you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
judyoz 240 Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) I can add Protein to my Water, so I can kill two birds with one stone. I use Profuse grape (love it). I drink almost constantly during the day. Which is getting better as time goes on. I drink two Premier shakes a day, 30 Protein each, the rest is all Water with protein. Hope that helps you Pam Edited May 4, 2015 by judyoz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

judyoz 240 Posted May 7, 2015 I purchase it through my doctor. Only $15.00 a bottle. Use 2oz per drink. I just purchased berry and that is also good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
