I had the Realize Band on Tuesday.  I had followed a 2 week clear liquid pre-op diet and am now on a full liquid post-op diet for 2 weeks.  I need help with figuring out how to get all my liquids/protein shakes in.  Thought I had it all figured out before-hand, but I don't.  Any advice?

It is not uncommon to be unable to get all liquids and protein in at first.  Give yourself a few days and just do your best to get as much in as you possibly can.

Protein shakes are great for protein during liquids.  I suggest going to GN****il you find something you like.  If you open something, try it, and hate it then you can take your opened container back with your receipt and get a full refund.  After you find what you like then find a cheaper source than GNC.

It is ruff at first.  It does get easier.  Keep sipping and sipping it will all change in a couple of days,  I know for me it was about the 5th day and it all came together.
Good Luck.  Hope to see you at the support group sometime.
