Post-op full liquid shakes. Yuck !!

[S2b 18]

Hi, I am 4 days post op. Feeling better everyday although my tummy area is still pretty sore, especially around port incision.

I am on a full liquid diet for the next 2 weeks. All the shakes I have tried are yucky !

Can anyone share any shakes they thought were good ?

Thank you, Terri

Are you making your own or using pre-mixed? I dislike all of the pre- mixed. I use Designer whey Protein Powder mixed with skim milk and love it! It is 0 fat and only 1 carb which appeals to me because I am diabetic.

I brought the Special K Protein Shake and it was soooooooo delicious!!!!! It has 10 grams of Protein and 5 grams of fat. I loved that protein shake...... I know that we are to consume 60 grams of protein a day.

Thanks !

I was getting the pre-made drinks. Maybe I'll have to try making my own. I'll also look for the special K drinks.

My list the Dr. Gave me had slim fast low carb and slim fast optima. But I haven't been able to find either at my local stores.

Premier brand ready to drink Protein Shakes at costco are very good. 30 g Protein 160 cal.

I also like to make my own. I have both vanilla and chocolate whey. Skim milk is a must.. With chocolate sometimes I add a like Turani sugar free Syrup (vanilla) and a little Peanut Butter. It is mmmmmm.

I also use the vanilla with a little Jello sugar free cheesecake pudding mix and sometimes also add a couple of strawberries to it. I have a personal blender that makes 2 cups so that is what I use for one day.

Hope that helps. Experiment.....google homemade Protein shakes. Turani's flavored syrups are great. They are in coffee Creamer section of wal mart.
