Too Much??
RNY on 06/01/12
So I am 3 weeks post-op as of tomorrow I am wondering if what I am eating seems like too much
B-2-3oz of yogurt
S-protien shake(1c milk w/ 1/2sc powder)=20g Protien
Lunch- 1/4c chicken or tuna salad
S-protien shake(1c milk w/ 1/2sc powder)=20g Protien
Dinner- 1/4c chicken or tuna salad
S-protien shake(1c milk w/ 1/2sc powder)=20g Protien
With my meds I have 4oz milk
In between my meals I am drinking about 40oz of water during the day.
I am just wondering if this is too much? Any input would be great. Thanks

It looks good to me. The yogurt and protein shakes just slide on through your pouch. Only the 1/4 cup of chicken and tuna would stay in your pouch and keep you full. Just be sure you are measuring because you probably won't really feel full because you have not healed from surgery yet. And also make sure you are not drinking for 30 - 60 minutes after you eat.
Good luck!!

Good luck!!

Looks very good. At that point, we were eating no more than 1/4c with up to 8 "meals" a day, which were either protein or a protein shake. sounds like you are right on track.
