Day 13

[DrBrianG 47]

Today is day 13 post Gastric sleeve. Still sipping an ounce of liquid at a time. Pre-surgery, I loved Protein 2.0 Water, now, I can't take it. Isopure tastes pretty good.

I am on full liquids. Trying Bone Broth for more protein, loved the HealthSmart (Baripal brand next month)powdered Soups, and applesauce.

Part of a scrambled egg takes 20 minutes to eat, and I am stuffed. Making really thin Protein Shakes.

Looking forward to your reactions, tips, and feedback. Happy Pre-July 4th!

Yeah - after surgery the thick shakes were too sweet and just gross, Isopure also try Syntax nectar. I sautéed vegetables in my Bone Broth for flavor - carrots, celery, white Beans. I strained them out, or ran through the Ninja and strained. At about your stage I could not get a whole scrambled egg in - 4 bites, done.

You still have inflammation, it will progress nicely from here. Go slowly, wait 10 minutes after bite 3... that fullness is sneaky. Also some of us have a 'tell' - our noses run, sneeze or we hiccup. I still hiccup.
