Thanks for the reply! Did you start the protein intake immediately after surgery?

Hello all! I just signed up here because I'm finding myself completely lost I was sleeved 1/30/18 with Dr. Khrais in Jordan. I stayed there four days and then flew back home to Qatar. I'm currently a month and a half post op and I have no idea what I'm supposed to be doing. I was given a diet to follow for a month (liquids, no chunks, purees), and since the month ended, I'm kinda just doing my own thing and eating chicken/fish/meat and veggies. I keep seeing posts about getting your protein in, but I'm confused because I was never given any guidance for protein intake...or otherwise, really. I'm really feeling like I should be doing a lot more in terms of exercise/protein, so I'd like some guidance based off what your surgeon instructed you to do. I know that every surgeon has a different plan, but it will still be super helpful so I can get an idea. Also, when should I see the bariatric surgeon for a follow up? I'm trying to get an appointment scheduled with one in Qatar, and I'm honestly worried because I've gone a month and a half without a checkup. Also, I've lost 28 pounds since surgery, is that good, should I be losing more? I personally feel like things are moving superrrr slow
