Went to the doctor today for 4 month check up and was told to stop drinking Protein Shakes. Now I'm freaking out some. Can anyone give me a typical food day that gets 60+ grams of Protein and 800 calories.

What was the reason the Dr said to stop drinking Protein Shakes? I'm 3 months out and still have them.

Boca burgers really make a difference.

Breakfast - sirloin wrap w/ romaine lettuce, mustard, 2 oz sirloin - 70 calories, 13 grams Protein

lunch - Fage Greek yogurt with chocolate sweet drops and 1 T. PB2 - 123 calories, 20 grams protein

dinner - 3 oz scallops - 90 calories, 18 grams protein

snack - 1 stick Ostrim Jerky - 90 calories, 14 grams protein

You've just hit 65 grams of protein in under 400 calories. Spend that other 400 calories on green veggies, Beans, dairy, whatever you want that fits your macros and rules.

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
