Drinking coffee with my protein shake



Recommended Posts

Hi,

This is probably a silly question but I'm confused, so here it is.

I am in the full liquid stage of my post-op diet and for my mid-day meal I am having a Protein Shake. Can I drink coffee after my shake or is the shake considered like a "solid"?

My Dr. considers it a liquid.

I add one teaspoon of Starbucks VIA Italian Roast Decaf to my Protein shakes. Yum!!! I kill two birds with one stone. ;)

I added instant coffee to my pre op shakes, couldn't stomach them or stand the smell and the coffee took the edge off a bit.

I am at phase II....thicker liquids and shakes. I ave sample menu from doc ad it says to wait an hour to drink after meals and shakes. I also dont think i can drink coffee unless Decaf. good luck!

I think I am one of the few who actually liked the taste of my pre-op shakes (not much I don't like the taste of lol ) but I do like the idea of adding instant coffee to the shake. Thanks

I love that! You can use coffee or any of the sf ff pudding mixes. Just be careful after liquids because Jello instant pudding mixes have 300 sodium per serving. I think their are 4 servings per box. Also PB2 is great to get Peanut Butter flavor!

I am an avid coffee drinker so I will have my coffee and Protein Shake together for Breakfast. And when I finish my Protein shake, I drink a bottle of Water, and then I go for my second cup of coffee. :D Good luck.

If any of you like iced Michael coffees, try buying chocolate myofusion. Fill a shaker cup with ice, now fill with hot coffee and let melt down then add a scoop of myofusion. shake well. This is my Breakfast every morning. So yummy, not gritty. Also goes with vanilla flavored.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
