Hi all I got my sleeve done on March 16th I’m on day 12 post op. My dr told me I have to be on one month liquids and to concentrate on getting my 64oz of Water in a day and as much Protein as I can take . Really struggling on what to eat and what type of schedule I should be in any pointers? TIA

Starting weight was 202

Now 185

But can’t seem to keep loosing any more .

Maybe you've been such a good girl you've hit the dreaded 3-week stall 9 days early. Keep on what you're doing right, once your body "catches its breath" you will resume losing again. Have your measurements gotten smaller,? even those NSV (non scale victories) are something to feel proud of. You are an example to all the "newbies" who yearn to be like you and someday they will be. Smile, you're still traveling on the road to better health![emoji12]

I bought the chocolate premiere but I’m tired of it am i supposed to drink 1 whole one for bfast ? Or is that too much ?




It’s medicine. Drink it anyway.

Yup a whole one for Breakfast and probably lunch and dinner. That’s 90g Protein which puts you just about right!

I switched from the chocolate flavor to the banana flavor. In my program they teach us that eatling all day, any amount is not good, and they have some term for it, and that you should be have food into three meals and two Snacks. And the same with the Protein Drinks.< br>
Post op instructions are to stop drinking clear 30 minutes before, and resume 45 minutes after the "meal.". We are told to drink in increments of 2-3 ounces for each meal/snack over 20 minute period until we can tolerate the whole drink. Then sip Water test of day.

One drink a day is going to be bad for you long term. That is why the diet was extended. What I do is start the day with a Premier Protein drink so I get it in early. I am able to drink a whole container in 20 minutes. I then wait 45 and start water.

You need to start just taking bigger swallows until you can tolerate an amount over smaller time period.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
