I"m new to this so I think I posted this in the wrong place previously. Surgery was 6/8. I drink 2 premier protein shakes and 1 premier protein drink a day. When I try to eat it seems like it gets stuck and I've thrown up 2x. I'm not getting the 600 calories that they say I need but I am getting 80 grams of protein daily. I've only lost 20 lbs and I think it should be more with getting so little in calories. I can't get much water down because I cannot stand it. What are you guys eating /drink on a typical day? Any advice is welcome as I think I'm doing this all wrong...

I'm 3 1/2 weeks out and i'm having trouble getting enough calories. I have 2 premier protein shakes and 1 protein drink. I struggle getting water down. I try to eat and it seems like it gets stuck and i start burping and have thrown up twice (gross Im sorry). Im only down 20lbs and I feel like I'm doing all of this wrong. What are you guys eating and drinking in a typical day? Grateful for any advice....

Have someone pound on your back it helped me a lot. Which Dr. did your surgery? Tomorrow you will get another IV treatment and then they will be done with you. I bought the vitamin patches from them as well as the Unjury chicken broth which is not bad. I ordered from Amazon the Premier Protein Clear that they give you and the Chocolate shakes which I drank on my second day. Travel day back to Cleveland was a little rough but just take it slow. We can do this together!!!

Hi - I had my sleeve 1 week ago. It went really well except for the pain I am having in my shoulder I think is from the gas or from the Heital Hernia repair they did. I started drinking protein shakes on day 3. The said it was ok to do that for another week then I can add soft/pureed food. I guess different doctors say different things. I am having trouble getting in all my fluids. I've lost my thirst!! Here's to our journey to a whole new life...

Your surgery is today!! I hope you are going great!! I had mine at Blossom 1 week ago and I feel really good. Only trouble I am having is shoulder pain from the gas.
