My stage 2 is different

[Daisee68 2,493]

​Yes, but I have had a bit of trouble with it and have stuck with pureed mostly for quite a while and I just cannot eat enough to ever get 80g + of Protein I am supposed to get. I am still (usually) using 2 Protein shakes a day. It is getting a little better everyday (though today wasn't a great day), but I know it will get better. I think a lot of my issue is eating too fast or not chewing enough so I end up getting sick. Still I can only eat about 1/4 cup to 1/3 cup at a time (depending on what it is) but if it is meat like chicken or turkey, I'm only getting about an ounce at a time which is only 7 or 8 g at each meal so clearly not enough. I eat a lot of dairy - yogurt, cheese, etc. but even then I increase that with Protein powder when I can. I don't know that I am normal though so don't be worried that is how it will be for you!

Yea everyone is different .. If I do get like that .. It would be a funny thing too see my dietician explain how I'm going to get enough Protein

Right??!! Just so strange.... I am so curious what she tells you about this stage...

You know I just remembered about a dr that gives lectures and records on YouTube that isn't a big fan of shakes. Or I think you can go to his website - drmatthewweiner.com or you might be able to google it.

Maybe it will give you some good ideas while you wait for your NUT to call back? (I haven't watched it in a while so I don't quite remember so don't judge me if it is bad info. )
