One month out

I am 4 weeks out and feeling pretty good!!! Still super hungry but I am hoping it will get better since I get to start on some new foods!!!!! SUPER EXCITED, LOL!

I was eating yogurt, pudding, cream Soups and Protein shakes.

I have lost 34 pounds since surgery!!! That makes 47 pounds from my highest!!

I went to the dietician today, and started new foods. Here is what my diet will be for the next 2 weeks. I just wanted to see if this was close/similar to what others ate during this time.

Week 4: 5 meals a day:

Protein shake 2 times a day 8 oz at a time

1/4 cups of any of the following foods, 3 times a day :

chicken, turkey, ground beef, eggs, low fat cheese (string cheese), yogurt, wendy's chili (she said if im out), chunky soups, cream soups, cooked vegtables (carrots, green Beans, beets, baked winter squash), potatoes and yams (mashed or boiled), fruit (canned in juice- pears, peaches-don't care for these fruits), applesause (no sugar added)

There are a few more foods (fish, cottage cheese, etc) but I don't like them.

Week 6: 5 meals a day total:

Protein shake 2 times a day 6 oz at a time

1/2 cup of any of the foods listed above, 3 times a day

So I figured I was getting close to 400 calories a day on this, and around 35 g of protein. I was probably getting that much protein before this too. They want me to have between 60-70g of protein. The dietician said not to add more protein now since I am doing okay. I still feel like I need to add more protein because I want to start working out. I have been walking, but very few days. I tried the Isopure and got VERY bad diarrhea and couldn't eat for a few days. Has anyone tried unflavored Protein powder? I think my body can't handle that much protein. I can't do soy protein.
