Does isopure count as fluids?



Recommended Posts

Im 5 days post-op and just went home this morning. I had a bottle of Water with crystal light and was able to finish it in 3 hours. Currently sipping on Isopure zero carbs with 40g of Protein. Does this beverage count as fluids as well? I'm hoping to add the oz to my Fluid intake.

Anyone know?

Thanks!

I asked my doctor the same question today and she said it doesn't count because it's technically a meal for us. Maybe contact your dr to make sure so you don't get dehydrated.

Good luck on your journey!

My nut says once it has Protein in it then it counts as a Protein and no longer a liquid.

Congratulations, on your big step! I believe (may be wrong) that Isopure is on the approve list for Proteins shakes.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
