elynnmo 15 Posted July 31, 2013 Anyone else have just a 'bleck' feeling from the Protein Shakes during pre op diet? I'm wondering if it is just cuz I have not really had them before, or what. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I only drink chocolate and add a little Decaf instant coffee, a little peppermint extract and lots of ice. When blended with the milk it becomes a very thick shake. I have been drinking them for Breakfast for over one year. I use a small Hamilton Beach blender. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
drehn88 251 Posted July 31, 2013 To be honest, I hated them! I couldn't wait until my liquid phase was over (I didn't have to do shakes during my pre op diet). I will probably never drink another Protein Shake again. After fills I'm supposed to do liquids for 24 hours. I find other liquids and avoid the shakes. Sorry I can't be any help for you other than I feel your pain. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
3mommy 52 Posted July 31, 2013 The shakes were awful especially around the second week. I couldn't take it. I started getting smoothies from tropical smoothie once a day to break up the grossness. I got no sugar added and then I added whey Protein to them. I just found out that red mango now has whey protein they can add to their nonfat yogurt smoothies. I am soooooo excited that's a good post op snack.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
