Just had my sleeve surgery on 6/2

struggling with getting enough protein and liquid daily - any tips tricks?

I am spacing it out 30 mins before and after and I am drinking only 4 oz across 20-30 minutes but have a great deal of gas with every sip

Hi Lori....make sure you are only taking sips...no gulps. I get this when I forget and gulp. Is it only when you drink or when you eat also? You can try gasx...it can be a lifesaver. I am also struggling with protein. I have to force myself to eat my Greek yogurt...right now I can't do the protein shakes.

I am still gasey, it was really bad in the beginning, but it got better & I still have it now.... 6.5 wks out. It was painful before, now it's tolerable. However, I have been known to make comments that if I had been told before how gasey I'd be now, I'd never have it done (joking, of course). GL
