Getting your Protein in helps A LOT and what Mis says staying active and multi's.....

She is doing amazing!!! She is a good one to follow!!

get plenty of rest for sure...I have noticed a huge change in the amount of sleep I now require to function normally

I just checked your profile and you were just banded April 10, so yes for awhile you are going to be weak and tired, not unusual.

Follow your Drs orders, make sure you're sipping enough water and rest when you get weak.

If you are not cleared for protein shakes, call your surgeon and talk with them.

Your profile says your surgery was April 10,2013 and today is only the 9th of April.

April 10th. The energy question was a general question. Some people drink energy drinks, coffee, etc.. I am looking for healthy ways to have energy post banding. For instance, I love greens plus for the energy, but the taste is not so good. Right now I can drink an 8 oz glass of water and greens 1/2 and 1/2, so I can get past the taste. If I understand, after banding, I will no longer be able to do this, just sip. But how in the heck can you get 64 oz a day down by sipping? What am I missing with the word sip? To me that means " wetting" my mouth not drinking.
