Protein on a Full Liquid Diet

Jul 10, 2017

I plan to blog about what is working for me (in the moment) since I haven't found a lot of bloggers talking about this stage of WLS. A great blog for later in the journey is

So far I have been able to get 60 grams or more of protein daily. Using the Nutrition Tracker on Spark People has been a lifesaver. Since surgery I have only been out of the hospital for 6 days total.  I am using a combination of Syntrax Nectar powdered protein (whey isolate), Premier Protein ready to drink shakes, Atkins Advantage ready to drink shakes, and Nestle Beneprotein powder.  Of course I also indulge in SF Jello & popsicles.  Practicing the 30 minute rule is hard but worth it - No drinking 30 minutes before or after eating.  When I have felt nauseous has been when I disregarded this rule.  If you are on this journey with me or just starting your own, I pray you have success!
