Help!
I'm almost three weeks out and eatting mushies (egg white salad smashed, chili blended, Greek yogurt, and blended tuna) , about 2 tlb, oh and I can eat a whole scrambled egg in about an hour. Ok so here is the problem, I feel empty about 20min after I eat. Should I be eating more? Oh and I'm only able to drink 2 30g each of Protein, before they make me feel sick and 5-6 cups of Water. So I'm getting about 70-75g a day. Oh and I'm burning from 300-500 calories of the less than 600 calories a day. One more time HELP!!!!! I'm so confused about ow much or little I should be eating.

Moody, Picky Sleeve
I've never been a morning person, but always liked to eat with 30-45 mins of waking...not anymore. My sleeve does not like anything before 9:30. Pre-op I started taking liquid multi, no problem. Post-op my sleeve does not like anything but Pepcid complete. This is crazy, lol
