Hi there!

I'm 12 days post-op and on purees. If I make a Protein shake it ends up being about 500mls.

How much should I drink at one time?

I've been sipping it constantly over about 4-5 hours (Drs orders because I was getting terrible spasms). The spasms are gone now for the most part and I'm worried if I don't start setting meal times I'll stretch my pouch.

Thanks!

What ever you can tolerate. No more than 2 ounces at a time. You must stop when you feel full.

You can not stretch a gastric sleeve. It's impossible to do.

liquids, including Protein shakes pretty much go right thru your sleeve into your intestines. You only need to set meal times to get into the habit of not grazing.

The volume of the shakes doesn't matter. The powder is about 20 grams. The goal is to get the amount of grams the surgeon or NUT recommended.

Thank you!!
