Protein/food/enough Calories



Recommended Posts

Hello

I'm doing good as far as keeping food down,but I have some exception if I drink too much Water at once or don't chew well I will vomit,but besides that I'm doing just fine.

I'm not getting the 50grams of Protein per day as written in the sheet the surgeon gave me. In fact I can't stand the protein from Atkins mocha latte which I was loving before surgery. Can someone tell me what can I do to get my protein intake?

I'm only able to eat 2-4 bites at a time,and I don't eat all day long. I eat because I have to live,but other then that if I eat once a day I'm good,but I try to eat at least 3-4 times a day since it's just a small amount I can eat. According to the sheet I'm suppose to consume 800-1000 calories per day which I'm far less then that. If I eat 300 calories or less that's all I can get in.

You tell me how your doing with your protein/vitamin & calories intake. I don't know what to do.

I'm looking forward to abdominal excercise after July 30th. According to my sheet here.

unjury chicken broth was a lifesaver for me. 8 ounces of Soup = 21g of Protein. You have to order it at unjury.com. Good luck!

I'm gonna check it out. Thanks

I drink a 30g Protein Shake first thing in the am, one after lunch, and try for at least 1/2 a shake after dinner...totaling around 75g...as my dr recommends 60-90g. Plus cottage cheese and Greek yogurt are great sources of Protein. The shake I drink are from Premiere nutrition I also alternate w Unjury...which gives 20g of

Protein in 6 oz.:)

Your doing way better then me. I can't stand the shakes,but I will look for food or other drinks besides shakes with protein. In about 2 weeks or so I should have money to order the Soup from unjury.com

Yes, try the unflavored from GNC...more affordable and you can put it in whatever. I can taste it but not too bad.

Hi girl! I too have issued with the Protein. They all

Taste so gross. I started using the Unjury unflavored... Its gross but you can mix wih everything. Also, I bought a huge supply of Isopure. You can drink that and it counts towards your liquid intake...

I have been on Isopure Low Carb Dutch Cholocate. I mix it with skim milk, its not my fav. drink but I do drink it. My dr. requires a minimum of 64 grams of protien a day. I eat yogurt and cottage cheese for Breakfast, Protein Shake for a snack between breakfast and lunch. Any other Protein is a bonus. I do drink the Special K protein Water packets too. I know the shakes are nasty.. I just drink them as quick as I can without getting sick and just be done with it - LOL. Check out the protein flavor packetts you put in water by Specail K I think they are like 5 grms of protein per packett ... the strawberry/kiwi is pretty tasty :) You really need your protein... you don't want to loose your hair. My hair is thin to begin with so I am real strict on getting my protein in each day.

      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? 🤷‍♀️

      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.
