Hi everyone -

Yesterday was the beginning of week 2 after having the VSG with Dr. Kelly. This is what I ate today:

- V8 Fruit Explosion - Individual can

- Some Water

- 1/2 cup tomato Soup

- 1/2/ cup brocolli soup (strained)

- Not quite a half cup of greek yogurt

- Jello

- Not quite 1/2 cup oatmeal with milk like soup

- Some Isopure - which I loath

Am I doing ok here? I am not getting enough Protein - I know that but the protein I have although soy based and can be made with water, tastes not the greatest unless I put part of a frozen banana in it.

Can you give me your thoughts on my diet today? Good or not, is welcome.

Thanks SO much :-)

You are doing great! Keep on keeping on!

It took me a little while before I found a Protein drink that I liked. I have an Atkins Protein shake every morning and if I feel like I haven't gotten my daily dose so to speak I have another. They are 11oz w/15gm protein, 2net carbs. When I was 2 weeks out it took me about an hour to finish one. Dark chocolate is my favorite!

i also love the atkins protein drinks but they took a bit before i could tolerate them. i also was not able to get enough protein in so i focused on my water intake. sounds like u are doing great!

I love the Premier Nutrition Protein shakes at Sam's Club or costco. They have 30 grams of protein in 1 shake, low carb and 1 gram of sugar. They taste a lot like the atkins shakes but have much more protein. To me, they taste like chocolate milk. I usually have 2 a day and that alone gives me 60 grams of protein. Sounds like you are doing great though, keep up the good work.

I love Atkins drinks too and their protein bars.
