Omg, I don't know how to take 70g of Protein a day, and 64 onz of liquid plus purée foods. I'm so lost. It's to Much for my sleeve. I need help I stared to feel very tired

One thing you can do is make sure almost everything you consume has Protein. My surgeon allowed all fluids to count toward my 64 oz of Fluid.

As mentioned, Premier Protein gives you a lot of protein for a small amount of Fluid. My surgeon said there was no physical reason we couldn't drink three premier Protein shakes (total of 90 grams of protein) in a day the day after surgery.

Just keep sipping.

Yes I find premier Protein the best for me. I don't mind the taste even and haven't gotten tired of them. Which is odd because I wasn't afflicted with a sweet tooth and don't typically like sweet. The vanilla is tasty and so is chocolate. strawberry is blah. Get the premade. I know they seem expensive but I am sure you spent more than 4.50 a day on food before the sleeve. Good luck!!!!

Something to try. Isopure Water. 40 grams Protein in a bottle. Added bonus is hitting your Water requirement.

You can buy them in single bottles at GNC or Vitamin shoppe

I tried the Isopure but I couldn't get past the taste. I purchased bottle and bottles of it. I thought if I found someone in the San Francisco area that might want to try I would give them away to a good home.

I always sample a product before I buy more. I like Isopure apple Mellon. shakes sit a bit heavy for me. I'm on the run most days. I pour it over ice in my Water bottle... ..I'm good to go.

The Isopure Protein powder I use gives you 50 grams of Protein, no sugar, and no carbs. You should be able to pick up close to 20 more grams in your diet. If not double up on your shakes one In the morning one in the evening.

I drink the Premier Protein shakes also. If you go to Bariatric Choice, they sell a Jello & hot chocolate that both have about 15g per serving. I love jello & hot chocolate. I will say, if you use the jello, I make it according to the package but add about 1/2 cup of ice after I mix the hot Water & jello mix. This is supposed to be one serving but I find it's more than I can eat at one time. I cut the serving in half & eat it in two servings. Love this stuff.

The Isopure apple melon is the only flavor I liked out of them all. It hid the slight aftertaste so well!

I could t get with the Isopure personally but it's worth a try! Also, I have GENEPRO Protein it's tasteless and flavorless so you can add it to just about anything for the extra protein. It comes in handy!

I can tolerate Isopure much better than premier or muscle milk Protein Shakes. I think I'm lactose intolerant because my stomach becomes bloated and gassy after drinking those ugh. I normally add crystal light to my isopure to make it taste better.

Of course I should have tried it before buying 35 bottles!!! But I was purchasing a lot of items before surgery trying to be proactive. I thought I would be a great help with the Protein. I had to purchase online. I couldn't find a store that carried it

I agree on the Isopure so what I did was make my own concoction.

8oz of Isopure

8oz of the same color gatorade or Powerade - make sure they are the zero ones

8oz of Water

Mix all together and enjoy! Water and Protein all in one which didn't make me gag at the taste.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
