  1. Or do I count it with my fluids? Asking because I am making a plan for how to eat and drink throughout a day.
  2. Heya :)Unfortunately I could not find anywhere online that would ship to my country. Things are going a bit better now that I am on regular foods, but I am still having a hard time getting enough protein in. I tried Quest bars, but after my surgery I cant stand them hehe.. Still searching for something like you suggested, but it seems to be hard to find here. All I find is powder that you have to mix yourself, or sports-shakes that tastes way too sweet. Losing weight though, so thats good. How about you? How are you?

  4. there is a coconut Water called coco protein that is amazing low in calories and lactose/gluten free it really does just taste like coconut water!! I love it!! I'm 2 and a half weeks out Thank you so much! I will see if i can find that.
  5. Yea. It is getting better. I am just stressed and worried about getting dehydrated or not getting enough Proteins. Today has been easier. I dont feel pain when drinking Water anymore and I feel like I can drink more between my meals now. I hope thats normal Its the same with my "meals", but I am pretty good at eating slow and only the adviced ammount, so I hope thats why my sleeve isnt arguing with me... I started thinking " what if they didnt make it as small as they should have!". This is all new, so it takes time to understand it, and I stress myself a lot, I need to stop doing that!

  7. I have the same problem. It feels like all I am doing is eating and drinking. Having to eat 7 meals a day and fit the drinking inbetween is taking up so much time, and I was told to only drink 4 oz each time I drink. So I am not able to get the adviced ammount of fluids in during a day.

  9. Hi. I am now 8 days post op and I am feeling pretty good. I had 4 days of clear liquids and have started on the full liquids for 2,5 weeks. I should be eating 6-7 meals a day, and since I cant drink with meals, I feel like all I am doing is drinking and eating And I am worried I am not getting enough fluid in. I was wondering of any of you guys would share an example of your meal and drink plan with me, like what amount you eat and drink at what times during a day? Also, do you have any good suggestions for getting enough protein in at this stage, except for proteinshakes? Im having a hard time drinking them.
  10. I think low carb diet sounds a lot more tempting Getting pretty sick of the shakes.
  11. Yea, I hope so. I have been under 700 calories a day since I started last week. Thanks for the help ! <3
  12. Yea, thats what I am doing too, I have been drinking soups and shakes for almost a week now. Some of the days haw been really hard, so once a day I have replaced a shake with a plum or a slice of bread, with the same ammount of (or less)calories than the shake would give me. I hope this is does not ruin anything when it comes to the liver reduction. The instructions from my surgeon were so vague. I have surgery the 5th of September. Nervous and worried im not preparing the right way.
  13. Hi guys. What does your pre op diets look like? How long are you on it, is it only liquid, or a normal low calorie diet?
