That sound far to little Hun but I suppose depends on your post op diet am bypassed so mine differs greatly x

Can you contact your dietician?

I'm on about the same as you, I had the sleeve just over a week ago. I have muller light Greek yoghurt for breakfast, an either a cupasoup or home made soup for lunch and dinner, and another yoghurt or similar before bed if required.

It works out about 250 calories a day, not including any liquids, tea, sugar free squash, fruit juice or water.

That sounds normal 5 days post op to be honest..

Thank you ladies xx

It sounds normal due to just having surgery but you could drink 3 protein shakes instead which will provide you with 100% of your vitamins and minerals for the day (I base this on Cambridge shakes) I think lighter life is four shakes, celeb slim/slim fast you will need a liquid multivitamin or a chewable one

Hi, I'm 9 days post op and having pretty much the same as you maybe even less, it's hard to get a lot in right now especially when you don't even feel hungry. Most of the time I'm forcing myself because I know I have to get the liquids in lol. X

That seems like a good amount to me but maybe ask your health care team?
