Question For The Guru Sleevers!



Recommended Posts

At the beginning I drank one in the morning and one at night. I mixed 3 scoops of Protein powder, each had 10 grams of Protein, with 14 ounces of Water. When I was on soft foods I would add a scoop of the powder to pudding, or yogurt to get more protein during the day.

Now, 11 months out, I still drink one a day, in the morning, with 3 scoops of powder and 2 Tbs flax seed. I do this because my sleeve doesn't like food in the morning and it tolerates the drinks well and because I am one of the rare people that actually like my protein drink!

I'm one of the worst about Protein Shakes - I don't use them at all, but I was told by my Dr today that I'm not getting my Protein in so now I HAVE to have at least 1 a day, with milk since I don't do that either...

I drink one every morning. If I am working out intense like, I will have another one immediately following.

Premier Protein shakes from costco. They rock.

Right now I am drinking 3 Protein drinks a day preop I really like Spiru-Tein they have several flavors to choose from. I use milk in mine have not had the courage to try Water yet but I am on the liquid diet right now so I do not think the milk is going to hurt me.

I used one a day for the first 12 months, now once in a while when I need more Protein and less carbs. I also mix them into greek yogurt for a protein boost.

I drank two a day at first, then down to one a day, then just when I travelled and didn't get enough Protein in. Now when I travel I usually do get enough Protein. I haven't had one in more than a month. I keep the powder around for if I travel or if I get sick and don't feel like eating.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
