My only issue is bcuz I have acid reflux, its kinda hard still for me to get in what I'm needing. I am doing better than I was last week. My question is, when putting ur goals in, how many calories do u put n to intake a day?

Hello October sleevers...I was a hallowsleever. 6 days out and on clear liquids still. I am a married 41 year old female. No kids. I am from Akron, Ohio. Starting weight 2 weeks prior to surgery was 317 lbs. Today I weighed in at 300. Doesn't seem like anything for only doing clear liquids for a week and also having an overlarged spleen removed that had to weigh atleast 3-4 lbs. One more day of clear liquids and on to full liquids for 2 more weeks. We can do this!

hello had my surgery on Oct 25. Not able to find protien shakes that taste good.

Help?
