I had my lap band on January 24th

Hello! Nice to see alot of people taking control over their health/life. I survived the High Protein Clear Liquids and I am starting the High Protein Full Liquids today. Any of you guys keep note of your calorie intake per day? Am I suppose to include the calories from the protein drink? I don't quite understand when they say dont add protein calories on my calorie count. Is getting 800 cal per day easy?

You need to count all of your calories. Including protein. You should get 50+ grams of protein daily.

Yes, I count my calories on myfitnesspal. It's a free app which is wonderful. Pace yourself to get at least 60g of protein per day (the app adds carbs, prot, and fat for you based on your food entries). I have found that my homemade split pea soup is wonderful right now (2 weeks post op).
