Hi, I was banded on June 17th, in Norfolk, VA with Dr. Fontana. I have a week on full liquids and then on to mushies for two weeks.

I have some great Protein shake receipes for those on full liquids and they both have about 25 grams of Protein (depends on the Protein powder you use, I have Jillian Michaels).

vanilla Cherry

1 cup skim milk

1/2 cup fat free vanilla yogurt

9 frozen cherries

1 scoop of vanilla Protein Powder

PULSE IN THE BLENDER

Orange banana

1 cup skim milk

1/2 cup fat free vanilla yogurt

1/2 cup mandarian oranges

1/2 banana

1 scoop of vanilla protein powder

1/4 cup crushed ice

PULSE IN THE BLENDER

I can't believe how much I am looking forward to mushies...I can't wait to have have chicken salad, fish, and "soggy" veggies... :thumbup:

GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE!!

The frozen cherry smoothie sounds great. Are the cherry skins OK to eat or do you peel them first?

Thanks.

I drank the skins with no problems, but I did blend to a pretty thin consistency.

Cherry vanilla smoothie

1/2 cup of frozen cherries

1 cup 1% or Skim Milk

1/2 cup lowfat vanilla yogurt

1 scoop of Protein powder

Place in blender and PULSE until the consistency of a milkshake. Dollop with some fat free whip cream to make it pretty.

It has 27 grams of Protein and tastes incredible.
