Omg, I don't know how to take 70g of Protein a day, and 64 onz of liquid plus purée foods. I'm so lost. It's to Much for my sleeve. I need help I stared to feel very tired

One thing you can do is make sure almost everything you consume has Protein. My surgeon allowed all fluids to count toward my 64 oz of Fluid.

As mentioned, Premier Protein gives you a lot of protein for a small amount of Fluid. My surgeon said there was no physical reason we couldn't drink three premier Protein shakes (total of 90 grams of protein) in a day the day after surgery.

Just keep sipping.

Yes I find premier Protein the best for me. I don't mind the taste even and haven't gotten tired of them. Which is odd because I wasn't afflicted with a sweet tooth and don't typically like sweet. The vanilla is tasty and so is chocolate. strawberry is blah. Get the premade. I know they seem expensive but I am sure you spent more than 4.50 a day on food before the sleeve. Good luck!!!!

Something to try. Isopure Water. 40 grams Protein in a bottle. Added bonus is hitting your Water requirement.

You can buy them in single bottles at GNC or Vitamin shoppe

I tried the Isopure but I couldn't get past the taste. I purchased bottle and bottles of it. I thought if I found someone in the San Francisco area that might want to try I would give them away to a good home.

I always sample a product before I buy more. I like Isopure apple Mellon. shakes sit a bit heavy for me. I'm on the run most days. I pour it over ice in my Water bottle... ..I'm good to go.

The Isopure Protein powder I use gives you 50 grams of Protein, no sugar, and no carbs. You should be able to pick up close to 20 more grams in your diet. If not double up on your shakes one In the morning one in the evening.

I drink the Premier Protein shakes also. If you go to Bariatric Choice, they sell a Jello & hot chocolate that both have about 15g per serving. I love jello & hot chocolate. I will say, if you use the jello, I make it according to the package but add about 1/2 cup of ice after I mix the hot Water & jello mix. This is supposed to be one serving but I find it's more than I can eat at one time. I cut the serving in half & eat it in two servings. Love this stuff.

The Isopure apple melon is the only flavor I liked out of them all. It hid the slight aftertaste so well!

I could t get with the Isopure personally but it's worth a try! Also, I have GENEPRO Protein it's tasteless and flavorless so you can add it to just about anything for the extra protein. It comes in handy!

I can tolerate Isopure much better than premier or muscle milk Protein Shakes. I think I'm lactose intolerant because my stomach becomes bloated and gassy after drinking those ugh. I normally add crystal light to my isopure to make it taste better.

Of course I should have tried it before buying 35 bottles!!! But I was purchasing a lot of items before surgery trying to be proactive. I thought I would be a great help with the Protein. I had to purchase online. I couldn't find a store that carried it

I agree on the Isopure so what I did was make my own concoction.

8oz of Isopure

8oz of the same color gatorade or Powerade - make sure they are the zero ones

8oz of Water

Mix all together and enjoy! Water and Protein all in one which didn't make me gag at the taste.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
