drinking protein shakes after surgery..?

@@Dairymary OH, and BTW, my band never slipped. Got an upper GI to confirm that. The drs at the ER thought it was odd that I had a lapband, but they understood cultural differences and my special circumstances with eating problems.

If the nine US doctors that I saw at the ER were okay with me having a lapband, you should have NOTHING to say about that ? K?

Hi,

I was just wondering, but 2-3 days after the surgery how much Fluid can you usually drink?

about How much of a Protein shake can you drink when you are allowed to drink it?

I am just scared that I will become nutrient deficient after the surgery (because I don't wanna lose any of my hair!!)

So I wanna make sure that I am able to drink at least an ample amount of Protein Shake after the surgery

Please let me know how many cups of liquid/protein drinks you were able to drink following your surgery!!

thanks for all the replies in advance!

It will be difficult, but you will need to do everything you can to get at least 64 oz of Fluid and to reach your Protein target (mine is 100 grams). Fortunately, for me, I was able to count my protein towards my fluid target. Sip, sip, sip like it is your job and you can do it.
