How do I do this??

I had my first protein shake today after being on clear liquids for a week. It was heavenly I'm supposed to keep track of my protein and water intake. I've been just sipping. How in the heck can I get my water and protein in if all I can do is sip. It will take me forever. I'd appreciate any suggestions.

I know you're enjoying those shakes!!!  What I did was keep a bottle of water with me at all times, I knew that when I finished all my bottles I was good to go.  You'll feel like you're going to float away for a bit but it'll keep you hydrated! Keep up the good work!!!

I use my hospital mug for my water. It is easy to sip from, holds 32ozs and keeps it cold longer. So I know if I drink 2 of those a day - I'm good to go.

New Whey Protein Bullets http://www.bariatriceating.com/conewwhlipr.html These are 3 oz. vials with 42g of protein.  I mix one with 64 oz. of Crystal Lite, then divide that into two 32-oz bottles that I take with me and sip throughout the day.  Then I have half my protein and all my water taken care of. I usually buy the protein bullets via eBay if I find a good bargain.

My nut told me the protein shakes count as liquids.  Thank goodness!! I also use protein bullets which i get at  http://www.nutrahealthy.com/servlet/the-28/New-WHEY-Protein- Bullets/Detail and they are a buck cheaper than the Bariatrics website.   The guy that owns it also had RNY and went from over 500 lbs to something like 235.    All the flavors taste like liquid jello and you can just drink them and are pretty good but I think the orange is gross.  Take care, Pam
