It sounds like too little. When did u have your surgery?

January 4th of this year.

I am completing my after fill diet tonight and I make my shakes into very thick shakes by using lots of ice. It becomes thick as a McDonald's shake and they do fill me for 4-6 hours. I also use 2 scoops of the powder so i am getting 52 grams of Protein in each shake.

Tell us more about the after the fill diet.Is it like a liquid diet ?

They only put you on a liquid diet for 24 hours so the band gets the full effect. After that, you go back to the instructions that they give you in your paper work.

I do not count calories per my doctor. I do not drink my calories unless I have a fill or am unable to eat for some reason. Did your doctor tell you to measure and if so how much?
