Hard To Get All My Protein And Liquids In



Recommended Posts

I am wondering if anyone has any ideas for getting enough Protein. I can't stand any Protein drinks, they make me want to vomit. I am 2-1/2 weeks post op. Trying to drink milk, and now eating some cheese, Beans. Any suggestions would help.

Also needing help with getting enough liquids in. This whole sipping the Water is really hard to get 64 ounces in during the day. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Try mixing Greek yogurt with milk and some drops of mio. Easily 25gms or so protein (depends on the type of milk and yogurt)

What about crystal light in ur Water? Have u tried Soup? That counts as a part of ur 64 oz of liquid.

Are u allowed cottage cheese? Or ricotta cheese? Google high protein foods. Hope that helps

There is a German Instant whey Protein dust that is sold at NATURAL GROCERS or online at Vitamin cottage. It is absolutely tasteless and dusty. Sprinkle it on everything.

Also, powdered Peanut Butter called PB 2 (one scoop) and chocolate Unjury Protein, with 6 oz vanilla Almond Milk and 6 ice cubes in a blender is a fantastic liquid resees cup of peanut choco yum.

I also put the German Protein (6.95 for a pound) in Water with mio or with Soda Stream syrups for flat coke, dr pepper and it is pretty good. Hope this helps.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
