 Where is your dinner? At 4 weeks you should be able to eat chicken. Could also add in another protein shake. It is hard to get in the liquids once you start eating foods, but you only have 32 oz's of liquid. Is it possible to add another protein shake before bed?

I'm six weeks post-op.  I find that I need a good boost of protein in the morning to set me up right for work.  Instead of just an egg for breakfast which only has 5 or 6 g of protein and a diet snapple, how about adding a protein shake in the morning?

Four weeks post-op, I still got tired a lot in the late afternoons, particularly when I went back to work full time.
