Hey guys, quick question. My surgery was dec 19th, 6 days ago. I know the goal is 64g of Protein and 64 of liquid but i was just wondering if never sleeved people were hitting that. I know im not, but I'm not too far off at all. Just wondering what your intake was like at almost a week post op. Enjoy your holiday!!

I manage at least 80 grams of protein and 78 oz of water. Mostly by adding unflavored protein powder to everything.

I had the Gastric bypass surgery on the 7th of December. If you drink Protein shake that count as part of your liquids too. Cream of wheat thinned down and I added about 1-2 tsp of protein powder (vanilla creame) it's very good and adds the sweetness that you would have if you used sugar.

I just did my best, but didn't come close to meeting protein goals for a couple of weeks. You are healing. Get in as much fluid as you can and do your best. It will get easier.

I didn't start hitting my 60-70 grams of Protein until about 8 days post op. Before that, I was a little under.

What helped me make it to the 60 grams were the Premier Protein shakes, and also by adding powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored protein to my chicken broth or cream of celery Soup, which was my favorite thing while I was on the full liquid stage.

Also, I didn't have any trouble getting in well over 64 ounces of liquids a day... right from the very beginning. But I have always been a very thirsty person, probably because of my medications that I take.

Remember, that if you are having soup, Jello, protein shakes, they all count towards your liquids for the day.

I'm still under my Protein goal but getting better everyday. My surgeon's office said it could take up to 6 months to get.back to 64 oz of Water a day

Don't worry you will meet your goals it's a slow process but the results are long lasting as long you exercise. Lots of Water. And eating healthy

At the one week point, I was at 64 oz water and 65g+ protein. I used a lot of unflavored protein to meet my protein levels during the liquid and pureed stage. I still hate getting my fluids in but I do it. Bleh lol.

Protein shakes and liquids all count towards your liquid goal. I was told 50% of the 64 ounces should be Water based Clear Liquids such as broth, Jello, decaf tea, water and the other 50% would be protein liquids like the shakes and Isopure. So the total fluids are 64 ounces including all fluids. Pushing hard for 60 grams of protein but not quite there yet.

Bailymedlin24 it's impossible to get 64 grams of Protein and 64 ounces of liquid in a day I get 40 grams of protein and about 50 ounces of liquid in a day but it's taken me longer than a week to achieve good luck I move up to 60 grams of protein in about two more weeks keep us posted
