Thursday was the first day on my next phase of soft foods. For breakfast I had one scrambled egg. Snack of string cheese. For lunch (around 3) one tablespoon of canned chicken shredded with a touch of mayo. Dinner (around 6:30) one tablespoon of ground beef with gravy. I had 12 cups of liquids throughout the day. I did not have a BM all day-but I did each of the 3 prior days. I woke up Friday so uncomfortable. I felt constipated/stuffed. I had a fruit cup for breakfast on Friday. I know this was not protein but I thought the fiber would help me go. It did-2x and I started to feel better. I took some MOM too. For lunch I had peanut butter off the spoon. I pushed even more fluids all day. I definitely did not hit my protein goals but this morning I am feeling SOOOOO much better. I think I will start with a Greek yogurt for breakfast today and limit my soft food to only one meal instead of every meal. I know it is trial and error-so glad I feel better.

just starting the process to get my band converted to gastric bypass. Are you suppose to have Protein shakes post op too. Just asking......

Hi. Each surgeon has different guidelines. The goal for me is 60 grams of protein and since I can't each much I use the protein shakes. Many people on here do. I use EAS chocolate fudge muscle build and pure protein vanilla. I may branch out and try another type this week, but I do like these two
