Silly Question Time!

[Amelie2016 116]

If I am a few days late eating my thicker food, will my sleeve get smaller?

I know, I know ... but after my last year of not asking health questions, I was always surprised at what I experienced.

Essentially, if we use Protein Shakes and liquids a wee bit longer post-op, will it create a detrimental effect?

TY for replying!

No, the reason for the steps,

1. To give your stomach time to heal 2. To ease you back into eating, making sure to eat slowly and get enough fluids in.

Some find (me included) that the amount of food you can eat is a lot less than 1/4-1/2 cup at a time. This requires me to drink more liquid Protein in order to get the required amount in.
