On day 9 I was allowed Water, blended veggie Soups (tomato, squash) and Protein Shakes. I was not allowed cottage cheese until day 15. I would ask if you could have a blended veggie Soup and your mushie Protein. Other than that I would return to your doctors orders. I know it's hard. When I moved to mushies I bought a digital scale. I measured out my food and that was it, no grazing. Again, I'm not saying it's easy but this is a will power diet for now.

I was hungry a lot and just eat zero calerie items between meals & snack like Jello, broth & hot choclate. I am 3.5 wks post op and am still hungry. For awhile I was actually eating too little. I keep a on-line food diary to track my caleries, fat, Protein & carbs. Always go for protein fist. If you are hungry have more Protein Shake. Make sure it is 15-20g protein. I sip shakes through out the day. I carry them with me everywhere. Good luck!

Ok...not to hijack your thread but I still am wondering if I'm eating too much at a time...oceangirl when you drink a Protein Shake do you drink the whole thing at one time? I'm eating about a cup of Soup at a time and can drink a whole shake (not at the same time as the soup) I'm just scared I'm eating too much!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
