I will be 5 weeks out tomorrow. I am thirsty all the time. So trying to wait 30 minutes to eat gets to be really hard. Then when I do eat it is really, really small amounts. I have been losing weight consistently but this can't be healthy. I'm down 27 pounds so far. And to make matters worst the Protein shakes make me gag. HELP!!!! How are you guys getting it all in for the newbies? For the more experienced sleevers, how far along were you before you were able to get in all your liquids and protein?

Thanks in Advance!

I couldnt find the original post to help you, but it is a schedule for eating and getting in fluids. I cant give credit where credit is due.

food

8:30 am- Breakfast

1130am- snack

230 lunch

530 snack

830 dinner

fluids

9:30-1100-- 13 oz

1230-2:00- 13 oz

3:30- 500--13 oz

630-8pm- 13 oz

930-1100pm- 13oz

this helped me, hope it helps you, too.

I just try not to drink anything 30 min before and after my meal. I don't drink during either. This is what I was told to do by the NUT and surgeon. I try to start drinking early in the morning and take in a few oz every few minutes so I can get in my 64 oz. Hope this helps.
