Help Pls - 3 Days Post Op, I Need Help With Protein

[Beth A 28]

I use the Protein Shots, you can find them at any pharmacy, Walmart is were I get mine, but stay away from the whey 46 gram one cause it tastes like crap.

I loved GNC Lean shakes pre-op... But my tastes changed post op and I didn't like sweet anymore and only wanted savory.

For the first week post-op I lived on good, homemade, jewish-deli chicken Soup broth. The REAL stuff, with dill and chicken, not something from a can. There was something about the salt and the fat that my body just absorbed like a sponge.

okay spoke to the surgeons office and I am good if I want to throw in Optifast. She also suggested egg white Protein? no smell or taste and to supplement Soups with cottage cheese (in a blender). I have put some powder in my drink and it is okay and not to worry if I am not hungry, don't force it. So I do feel better and will experiment with smoothies today.
