What is you food/liquid in take at 6 days out?



Recommended Posts

Just had my surgery last week and just wanted to see what is you daily food and liquid intake? Not sure if I am eating enough, i know it hard to get 64 oz of Water a day. So just looking for input and advice. Thanks

7 days post op here. I'm focused on my Protein Shakes. I drink 2 (11 oz) Premier Protein shakes a day totalling 60g Protien. Additionally I try to drink 5 (8 oz) sized Water bottles. I've only been able to accomplish 4 out of the 5 waters and that took a week to do. Just talked to my surgeon yesterday (6 days post op) and he's pleased with the intake. He mentioned I can count out oz in shake as part of daily intake so I can make protien my # 1 focus.

I've had good and bad days - mostly due to pressure which is what I'm told is gas build up. Don't worry - just do what you can do. My method is sip water slowly until I feel the pressure. Wait a half hour. Sip protien slowly until I feel the pressure. Wait a half hour and repeat all day until bed.

Good luck.

I’m 8 days post op and am trying to get 2 Premier Protein shakes in each day and as close to 64 oz of Water. It’s harder than I ever imagined to get that little in me lol most days I come up about 8 oz shy of my water goal and get at least 1 1/2 shakes in. It’s over 100 degrees here so I’m very concerned with dehydration.

Check with your plan but mine allowed all liquids to count towards my daily goal including Protein Shakes and even popsicles

I am 9 days out. I am now on full liquids including 60 grams of shakes. I am finding it hard to get that 3rd shake in cause I fall asleep. I am constantly sipping on something every 30-40 minutes. Even if it is a popsicle.

My plan 2 shakes a day = 60 grams of Protein and 64 oz of fluids Jello, Water, lemonade, popsicle, broth, for 10 days only. I'm 5 days post op haven't made goal yet, but I'm trying. The hardest thing for me is to eat when I'm not hungry there are times that 2 or 3 hrs will go by with nothing to drink.

So happy everyone is doing so well. And we are all pretty much on then same place how in the heck do you get all this liquid in. My nutritionist does not have us count Protein Shakes and liquid, but I am because right now i have no chance to even getting close to 64 oz a day. Just have to keep trying everyday little by little.

So I’m feeling like I constantly have a bubble in my throat. Am I alone? Is it just because a little liquid makes me full? I had a lap band removed too, could that be it?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
