Today, Day 32 post-op, I got in all of my Protein with NO PROTEIN SHAKES! I was able to add fish today (salmon specifically), so that did the trick. And I got to 900 calories for the first time. It took me 14 hours of eating and drinking to get everything in and account for the 30 minutes before/after eating "no water" periods. I got in 910 calories, 17 carbs, and 90 grams of protein.

I'm sure there will be days when I have to have Protein shakes for one reason or another, but I am going to Celebrate the fact that I am finally in a place where I won't have to rely on them every day!

Onward!!

Congratulations. You got this.

I am just over 4 mths out and have a shake every morning. They fill me up and I am just not able to eat enough to get protein in.

Yeah!!!!!!! I'm 8 mo out and still have alot of restriction. 8 mo out i choose to get all my Protein from foods. Not becsuse i want food,but because i have so much restriction.

Im 4wks out and since i had the surgery, i cant stand any Protein shake. The dr wasnt so much concerned with protein right now. Just me being able to get these fluids in.

Yeah I'm 4 weeks out too. My dr.s main concern was fluids as well. I have been able to get about 45 g of Protein. I have found a juice Protein Drink that didn't taste so chaulky. It has 15 g of whey protein.

Living life like it's golden! A change is coming!!!!

What has your weight loss been like without protein requirements being met?

Same here, Protein shakes too thick for me I am 3wks out. I have been taking Isopure, it is more thin liquid and 40gm of protein per bottle, it works for me. Try it.
