kraziebeautiful 5 Posted August 16, 2016 Hello everyone who just got sleeved or who answered... Doingitmyway Are u drinking Protein drinks ? If so what kind ? I'm drinking nectar ones mixed with Water I also dilute apple juice. And when I feel I can't get Water down or fluids I'll chew ice crunch ice from sonic is the best I eat sugar free Jello and with full liquids I eat cream of wheat and I feel full I make it watery so that it's easy to go down. I do get hungry at times but I drink fluids to take that hunger away. I was feeling pain in my larger incision but it has gone away now I also eat vanilla Greek yogurt no fruit in it also if u feel u can't front Protein Drinks cuz they are to plain u have a nutrabullet and I put ice in it and. Frozen fruit like peaches mango bananas a scoop of Protein and water and make it like a smoothie then I spoon it like ice cream it's the best if j don't finish it I'll put it in the freezer till I'm ready for more and just let it thaw and blend it again Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ruby1 12 Posted August 20, 2016 I was sleeved on 8/9/2016. So far I have had no problems to talk about. Which I am very happy about. I get my Protein in each day does not see a problem. However I am still on the liquid diet. My only problem is is trying to get all the Water necessary in me. I don't particularly like Water nor have I found another type of juice or or drink that I do like so that is the hardest part for me thus far. I hope everything is going well for you and if you have any thoughts on different drinks to get my liquids in I'd appreciate anyone to answer thank you Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beautiful 1 22 Posted August 20, 2016 I do crystal light and unsweetened iced tea with lemon Sent from my SM-G900T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KristenLe 5,979 Posted August 20, 2016 @@Ruby1 Try decaffeinated tea (flavored - iced or hot), infused Water, power ade zero, sugar free popsicles, broth, Vitamin Water Zero, crystal light or water flavor drops. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jewels1020 6 Posted August 21, 2016 I don't like regular Water as well. I flavor mine with crystal light just enough for me to drink it and make it very cold. SF ice pops and Decaf herbal teas (raspberry zinger) also help to get the liquids in. I'm on stage 2 puréed foods, along with my 3 Protein shakes daily. I just now had about 1/4 cup of light progresso cream of potato Soup with some finely shredded chicken breast. Small bites and chew chew chew!! Lol I was sleeved on 08-12-16. Things are going well. I wish you and everyone the best of luck. SW 260 DOSW 247 CW 232 Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
