Puréed stage...what's the priority?

Should I be worried about Protein? Calories? Eating on a regular schedule?

I'm doing 2 Protein shakes a day adding oikos triple zero yogurt to them to get in my 60+g of protein.

Then having eggs, cottage cheese, or refried Beans in between.

And getting in 48+oz of Water

The rules from my team during puree were:

3 meals per day, no more than 3 T. of food per meal

No snacks other than protein shakes

Minimum 75 grams of protein per day

Maximum 60 carbs per day

Maximum 800 calories per day

Weigh/measure all food and record in an online food journal such as myfitnesspal.

Your team may have a different plan or set of rules -- you would probably want to check in with them? Every practice is different.

Protein and water are priority. Try getting more than 64oz of liquids. Did your Nutritionist give you a diet plan? Some are different in the # of times to eat.

Yes I have a guide to follow. Thanks. Nothing about calories was mentioned. 64 oz of liquids.

Protein and water for sure. Puree is mainly the healing stage.

Both fluids and protein are critical for healing and for weight loss.
