Georgia_Peach 32 Posted August 11, 2013 I know pre op is full liquids and Protein Shakes but I am confused about after surgery I was told shakes are to thick so how are we getting Protein I have a protein poweder that mixed with milk would be technically a shake but im confused about post op diet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SolracSpree 133 Posted August 11, 2013 I got my Protein from Isopure drinks. My doc required a CLEAR protein for 2 days post-op. I drank them for 10 before my body could handle anything else. 1 Georgia_Peach reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BandtoSleevechick 171 Posted August 12, 2013 i was able to handle full liquid shakes like that after 3 days post op,... listen to your body.. most would like you to be Clear Liquids atleast a week 1 Georgia_Peach reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! 12,703 Posted August 12, 2013 Every doctor has their own post op diet regimen. You will need to talk to yours for further clarification because we don't know his rules. 1 carol285 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carol285 145 Posted August 12, 2013 Just as an example of the vast difference between doctors, my doctor puts his patients on mushies the day following surgery to be supplemented with Protein Shakes. I am in no way suggesting this is what you should do, just pointing it out to show you how important it is to talk to your own doctor! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
