Hi, I'm one week post op. I have been drinking EAS advantEdge carb control shakes. U can buy them at Walmart. There pretty good. I also ordered protein powder online from bariatric advantage. It has 27 grams of protein and 8 grams of carbs. There also good. I would alternate between a shake and a cup of broth. It will get boring but it's worth it. I hope this helps. Good luck
