Calories liquid stage



Recommended Posts

How many calories am i supposed to be consuming. My socter didnt say. I hate Protein Drinks with a passion so i only have 1 a day thats like 150calories and then the rest of the time is broth thats only 10calories each time and Water. So all in all maybe 250 calories aday. I dont know what else to do. My body would rather starve than drink Isopure and Protein drinks.. ok maybe not my body but my taste buds :)

any advice? Ive tryed so many protein drinks its not funny. Cant stand them.

There are lots of yummy Protein Shakes out there. You just need to experiment. Mix a good powder with unsweetened almond milk not water! You are probably not getting enough protein and that can lead to complications. Don't worry about calories but try to get 60 gms of protein a day.

I feel you! I can’t drink any Protein. I ended up really sick. I am trying brownie bites which are 10 grams of protein each. My surgeon recommended them to me. Waiting in the mail for them, I’ll let you know how they taste.

I am drinking the Ensure Max. It has 30g of Protein and 150 calories. I put ice in it and have the Cafe mocha in the morning, it has caffeine and the chocolate in the afternoon. Vola the 60 g of protein. If you put ice in it and drink it slow it really is not bad. You need to find the Protein Drink you do like as it will be a part of your life forever. I also put berries with Protein Powder, ice and a touch of 2% milk and it tastes great.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
