Middle of the month.....

How many have had their sleeves so far and how are you doing?

I had mine last Monday, so far so good, I have pain sometimes on the right, and a little nausea. My biggest problem is trying to get the protein down ! That's a challenge, it seems like a lot to drink in one day.

What kind of protein drink do you have?  Body Fortress whey isolate has 30 grams per scoop and the skim milk has another 8.  So 2 glasses gets you to almost 80 :).  Hope this helps.

I use unjury, it's only 20 grams per scope , but it's absolutely delicious! It doesn't have a nasty after taste or anything I love it. I take 3 scoops and mix with 16 ounces of skim milk, then I sip on it all day, I just don't have an appetite, that's the big thing, so it's hard to fini**** off, i almost have to force it down 

I have unjury unflavored and I don't think I care to much for it. I feel like I can't stop smelling it. After a couple sips or spoonfuls I'm done. I feel so satisfied and I don't want to eat anymore. I sent an email o my dietitian because I need some help. I'm nervous about making myself finish because I don't know if I'm really full. Ugh...I feel like its a full time job trying to eat or drink.

I haven't had the unflavored. I use the strawberry sorbet with my crystal light , and I use vanilla for all day it's pretty good.

I forgot to add, the NP said it's good to get at least half of what we are shooting for. I was scared bc I couldn't get everything down, it's impossible. Prayerfully after the swelling subsides I'll do better. Currently I get about 32oz fluid not counting my protein. That's an additional 16 oz. I keep a bottle with me all the time so I can sip. That helps . I start on puréed Monday .

I can say I chop up some pieces of bake chicken in my blender and it was so good!! It took me over 30 minutes to eat it...but it was a great way to get down some protein.
