How do you guys do it?

I am three weeks post and on soft foods right now, but I am finding it really hard to get everything in. If I do my 70g Protein and my Water I don't have room for me to eat anything else. And if I eat something lunch or dinner I won't be apply to get my Protein in which is my #1 focus. Is starting to stress me out and I hope it gets easier to get to eat and get my protein in.

This is my schedule for most days.

8:00am I start my first protein it normally takes me one hr to and hour and half to finish it, sometimes two . Then right after I started drinking Water and count drinking until.

12:00pm then I try to eat some food like refined Beans ,boiled egg or tuna. 3 or 4 baby spoons I am usually full. Then I wait 30mins to drink water again

By 5:00 pm I start my second protein and I am

Done by 6:30 -8:30 because I eat something for lunch it takes forever to finish my protein and until I go to bed I just drink some more water.

I just would like some tips so I can stop stressing about how I am going to get everything in when I don't feel like eating all day, and the only way is to eat all day.

Any advice I would appreciate. Thank you

It sounds to me like you eat more frequently. When you refer to your Protein do you mean "protein supplement"? Because almost everything you eat whether it is soft or solid food should have some Protein so you can reach your protein target.

Early out I was eating or drinking something pretty much all day in order to reach my targets.

It does get easier as you heal.

early out you may have to eat all day. eat the right foods and if it means 5 small meals then that's ok. are you hungry? I was told not to eat unless I was hungry. the small amount I ate was broken up into 5 mini meals. I still do it.

I'm one month out and nutritionist said to eat every 3 hours. All foods she suggested are rich in Protein. Some days I have to remind myself but others I'm hungry 2 hours later. Every day is different but just focus on your goals and do the best you can each day.

Thanks everyone I hope it does get easier.

Yes I am drinking prime Protein shakes and I do make sure everything I eat has Protein in it, I don't like putting unflavoured protein on my food.

No I don't really feel hungry yet I just time myself to eat or drink.

At three weeks Protein and liquids should still be your priority. Sounds like you are doing everything right. Don't forget your Vitamins too:-)
