I am one week out and struggling to get in my 70-80 g Protein (req. by my nut). I have been using EAS Myoplex Original, but it takes me all day to even get 3/4 of the container in. Yesterday and today, I added a packet of powders? utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. I also mix my Water 1/2 with Isopure and Mio or CL.

Since I can only get in about 2 ounces every 2 hours at this point, I don't feel like I'm overloading with protein at one time. Is this okay? Am I harming my recovery or overdoing it? This is just while on full liquids, unless I can't get enough protein from food in the first part of the next stages.

The nutritional breakdown of my day is as follows (yes, I am a nerd and plan out and log everything before the day begins):

Cal: 395 (I add in some Soup, about 6 oz daily, but it only adds 110 calories, and I don't plan which soup)

Fat: 4g

Carbs: 16 (3 from Fiber, 4 from sugar)

Protein: 75g

So main actual question: is it okay to mix Protein powder with a RTD if consumed over the course of the day?

      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'. ???

        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!
