I do this twice a day. That's 60 Protein and 60 oz Fluid. I drink 20 oz of Water at night 30 mins after my puree. I can only handle stuff like hummus, refried Beans and mashed avocado. Usually 5 or 6 bites and done. I've only lost 4 lbs in 2 weeks so I'm fine sticking to the Premier Protein for now. What kind of premier protein do you like best? I love my ninja blender. I’m not familiar with nectar protein. What does it taste like? I like your plan of how you get in 60 and 60! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roleypoley 19 Posted June 29, 2018 I just got sleeved on monday 25th. still pretty sore but doing alright otherwise. i'm having issues with the Protein Shakes / most beverages now as well, everything just tastes too sweet and somehow off. however luckily, through experimenting i found this beverage, it goes down very well for me, and today i actually managed to hit the 64 oz by basically constantly sipping.i like the cucumber kiwi, dark cherry and the watermelon raspberry best. also Bone Broth and campells Soup, watered down and strained works quite well. https://www.amazon.com/WANU-Water-Nutrient-Infused-Strawberry-Watermelon/dp/B00V0XPNJE/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?ie=UTF8&qid=1530285747&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=wanu%2Bwater&th=1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just like a frozen frappe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Minerva1113 10 Posted June 30, 2018 I struggled a lot too. I had to stay in the hospital twice to get fluids because I couldn’t get any Water down. I lived on about 200 calories for the first 4 weeks. I am 7 weeks post op now and it is getting better. I meet my Fluid goal of 64 oz most days. I am still not at 60g of Protein but compared to two weeks ago I am at about 50-55g each day. Give yourself some time, you will get there. Remember how you felt 3 days after surgery? How do you feel now? It is confusing reading how easy it is for some people to eat and drink and how fast others loose weight. It stressed me out at some point but I trust on my sleeve and that it will all work out at the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebuilding the Temple 8 Posted July 2, 2018 Sorry that I haven’t sent and update. I’m doing great! All issues resolved and down 50lbs from highest weight. I eat anythinwithin reason of course still no sugar or cards no processed foods etc. I generally do 2 Protein Shakes and a high Protein diet. I have a smoothie in the am now that helped. Staying on my vita minds. food can be cumbersome but it keeps my appetite low. Any way I think it was just a bumpy start. Anyone struggling a few weeks post op take heart it gets better!
