Tmrw I get to introduce fish and over cooked pastas. Day 22! I've lost 15 pounds since Jan 8! I still can't drink protein drinks or powder I swell and makes me sick! I haven't started exercising yet! Hope every one is doing great!!!

If I never see another protein drink again it will be too soon; although I still have a whole case that I plan to take back for refund and a couple in the fridge. I absolutely hate them and the ones I do like have too much sugar and my sleeve doesn't like that; or, some are made with milk and cause too much gas, cramping etc. Most take like sludge LOL. I'm also pretty sick of soup too, of any type. I'm 4 weeks out and today, I decided to get my protein in by eating soft foods that I will either chew until they are water or, process them in the food processor if needed. Will see how it goes. Had some sushi today, not much but my sleeve has been able to tolerate it so far. Today, just feeling fatigue and my back in bothering me a little. I guess from being so inactive for the last month. I guess the feeling for me today is "I'm sick of being sick, I want to be normal again,"

I can relate to both of you! 16 days post op and sick of being sick and not being able to get in my protein. I started feeling really strange due to lack of protein so I took a trip to the Vitamin Shoppe today and bought something called New Whey Protein..it has 42 grams of protein and is much smaller than the isopure drinks so hopefully this will help until I can start having real food. Good luck to the both of you!

When was your surgery? Mine was 1/18. I had a premier Protein shake today. I got them at costco. They are only 11 oz. and 30g of protein. They also taste pretty good.

My surgery was 1/11. I think I'll try those once I'm out of my protein shots. I thought it would be a piece of cake to get in my 80 grams of daily protein but its sooo hard that I'm lucky if I can get in half.
