Can you have the Isopure clear liquid Protein drinks? (sold at Vitamin Shoppe, GNC, etc.).

thank you so much i think im going to order them later today but is it normal to be hungry just 6 days post surgery

We were both sleeved on the same day and I am feeling exactly the same way right now. My surgeon allows only two substances for 2 weeks post-op, one 8oz optisource(split into four 2oz servings) and 2 liters of calorie free beverages. That adds up to about to <30 grams of protein, <250 calories, and one hungry girl. I am thinking to add some syntrax nectar to my fluid intake. I know that is technically cheating but if I don't up my protein I may be tempted to do something more drastic. Best of luck. I feel your pain.

I was also sleeved the 13th and I feel the same way!

are you on Clear liquids too?

I was sleeved on the 12th and for 2 weeks I am to focus on 64+ ounces of non caloric liquids. Only adding protein if I feel weak or shaky. I've not really been hungry but did notice the muscle weakness an shakiness the past 2 days. I'm counting down to next Tuesday and a scrambled egg

are you on clear liquids too?

Yeah! Except I am allowed Protein shakes as well. I can't wait to go to my post op appt on wed so my PA (physicians assistant) can advance my diet! I am soooo looking forward to purees!

just hang in there!!! Isopure drink helps apple-melon the green one is the best flavor, you can do this girl

I am still pre op but read these boards every day and have learned a lot. Are you on a PPI? I have read that acid can mimic hunger. Just putting it out there.
