Lizzie125 got a reaction from Elode in 3 days post surgery-- I am constantly drinking but only able to get ~26 oz water and 10 grms of protein in so far, is this okay?
Thanks everyone. This is really helpful. I just am concerned that I am not getting in the Water and Protein I need. But sounds normal for how early it is. Oh, I checked the Protein Shake and it is actually 20 grams, not 10 in the shake. But I will check out the Protein Shake (Elode) mentions that has 30!
Anyway, I'll give the Doc a call tomorrow to be sure I'm doing what he thinks is best (he may tell me the same thing (as sleevemom88 and Maggie'sMom)-- concentrate on Water for now and get in what Protein I can. Anyway, thanks for the feedback, really helps put my mind at ease.

My surgery was on 12/11, I was two days in hospital and came home yesterday. I am literally drinking all the time to try to get the Water I need, but am only able to get about 26 oz of water, and it takes me 3 hours to get one Protein Shake down, so I have only had 10 grams of Protein today. Is this normal? I feel like my tummy is full to the top and I am uncomfortable. I don't want to mess this up.

Lizzie125 got a reaction from BellaLuce4 in Got my date-- Dec 11th! Nervous, Happy, and Excited!
Woo-hoo! I got my surgery date- Dec 11th. Has anyone started to substitute one meal a day with Protein shakes? I don't start the all liquid diet until Nov 28th, but was wondering if I should start getting used to the Protein Shakes by substituting one meal a day with the Protein shake?
