I was told your body only absorbs 30g of Protein at a time

Hi how's every doing? I was sleeved on the 11th May, loss so far 19lbs! Have another two weeks on a liquid diet and need some ideas to get me through to the puréed stage. I've tried the odd mouthful of mash and spaghetti hoops but I really don't want to push myself too far! Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Managing to hit Protein and Water goals by adding Protein Shots to SF Apple squash so not hungry just bored of the limited choices :-(

I have been eating cottage cheese with puréed pineapple chunks or peaches. Hot oat bran farina like Cereal. White fish baked in orange juice. Mashed potatoe. A ricotta bake recipe from [http://theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com/?m=1]. The eggface site has other good ideas.

I was sleeved May 10th. Down 29 pound including preop. Lots of walking and tracking my food. Getting about 60g protien daily. nectar protien drinks are awesome- grape or lemonade!

I was sleeved 5/10. I'm down 21 pounds including the 1 week pre-op diet. SW 250 CW 229. Weight loss has been stalled for about 10 days.

Everything has gone very smoothly. I'm still hungry at times though. Anyone else waking up during the night hungry?

Per doctors orders I'm drinking 2 Protein shakes a day plus four "meals" a day. The foods allowed right now are Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, 2% cheese and nut butter. I can also have no more than 2oz of oatmeal, grits, mashed potatoes or saltine crackers each day which I try to avoid. I usually get in about 110 grams of Protein and about 1000 calories. Seems like a lot but I handle it well.

Walking 30 minutes a day.

Tomorrow it will be 3 weeks since my surgery. Anyone else feel weak / tired after they eat ( or have s Protein shake)? I go back to work tomorrow and hope I can handle not having these naps after I eat!

@@jackiery, ah yes the burping! Anything that goes into my mouth food or liquid is followed by a symphony of Homer Simpson style burping! I repulse myself but I'm also embracing it....if I go out in public I never leave the house without my Gas X strips. I have Gas X in many forms all over the house and in every purse or car[emoji40]

Hi guys! I'm dealing with horrible constipation! I take 2 stool softeners a day, and just recently added Muralax. Anyone else experiencing this, or still taking stool softener after 3 weeks?

I have the same issue. I probably still do but I have started taking two tablespoons of Milk of Magnesia every couple of days and that seems to be doing the trick. its miserable so good luck. I hope that helps.
