January 10th marked 1 month sleeved for me and I honestly am not eating very much and it kind of scares me. I'm worried about my Protein intake and such. What are one month sleevers eating? Or anyone sleeved in November or December? I need like a meal plan. Any advice please? Direct messages welcomed!

I still drink a premier Protein shake every AM, just to make sure I get the Protein, and that starts the day with 30gms. The doc said they like you to get the protein from regular food, but 1 supplement a day, either a shake or Protein Bar is OK, but only 1. I am 5 months out.

What food phase are you in? That might help us figure out some good suggestions for you. At 30 days I was on soft foods still.

I eat about 850 calories each day fairly consistently. I hit my 80 g Protein each day. I have a thin cup of coffee each morning, it helps me poo (don't judge.) And I eat half a zone perfect bar at work over the course of the morning. Then school lunch option (sometimes a half chicken Patty or a short cup of Beans or their boiled yellow squash, something like that, but I can't ever finish it in one sitting. I take it back with me and finish it two hours later) I drink a Protein Drink. Premier is my favorite, over ice and usually over two or three hours. A cheese stick gets in there somewhere and Soup for dinner. Maybe a yogurt popsicle if the calorie count allows. I count the cals... Every day.

I have tried lots of foods I am not supposed to be ready for yet, and don't think I've done any damage. If it does not go down easy, I stop, and back up to mostly liquids. I had half a piece of pizza the other day. No problems. Beef, not so good. I had ricotta bake the other day and it was good, but the same thing today, and three bites on I wanted to barf. Only barfed once since sleeve Dec. 8. That was the dry trout. Ick.

I believe that it's all a matter of calories, protein, and liquids. If I drink them all or chew, it makes little to no difference if I stay in parameters.

I am down 25 pounds from surgery day, 30 from "go" date (11/23) I think it's a nice steady decline I can live with.

Right now I'm on modified regular foods for the next month.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
