I Can't Drink One More Protein Shake!



Recommended Posts

Yes you will. I stopped at about 1 month out. I couldn't take it anymore lol. I was sleeved July 17, 2012 and have lost a total of 65 pounds so far. Eat healthy- eat Protein first and exercise. You will be just fine :-)

I am 4 weeks post op. When I saw my NUT at my 2 week appointment, she told me no more Protein Shakes during the day. The only time I should have one is if it is almost bed time and I have not gotten my 80grams of Protein in yet. All my protein needed to be from food.< /p>

Thats actually a nice healthy change but I will say...80g's? I'd never make it without a shake. I have trouble getting 60 in (my goal). I don't like the things, but I still have to use a half scoop or so daily to get myself up to close to 60.

I havent touched them since about a month out they nauseate me now. If you can get your Protein through food my NUT said to stop.

I have a hard time getting 80 in. I had no energy at my last appointment so she told me to try to get to 80 grams a day. Most days I get around 70. I add cheese to everything that I can. I feel like all I do is eat, even though it is not very much at a time. Sometimes I just get tired of eating. Who would have ever thought I would say that!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
