Liberated Sleeve 148 Posted March 7, 2012 Surgery on the March 5th - could only eat 2 tablespoons of broth and 1/4 popsicle. Wasnt expecting to do much more. This morning, ate 5 tablespoons broth, 1/2 popsicle and 1/4 Jello. I am just not pushing it, dont want to throw up. Drank a 20 oz bottle of Water over sbout 14 hours...doctors are happy 1 Shemy-away reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sabrina140 33 Posted March 7, 2012 Quinn! I could not keep ANYTHING down, not even 1oz of Water for 3 days after surgery... just keep trying a little at a time. I am at 2 weeks and 3 days now and can tell you, it does get better... just a little slower for some of us Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenbr14 12 Posted March 7, 2012 My doctor would not discharge me until I drank 36oz of Water and it was only 2 days after surgery but I did it and went home. I am now on day 6 and each day I can handle more and more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quinn162 1 Posted March 9, 2012 Today I feel better. Thanks for all the replies. I'm able to keep a little more down. I love Sonic ice! It stays down. Still afraid to try Protein Drink. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enerfina 50 Posted March 9, 2012 I am using EAS 100%whey Protein 1scoop as 23g of protein. They have vanilla strawberry n chocolate vanilla is my favorite. Taste good with non flavored soy milk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Quinn162 1 Posted March 9, 2012 Tried injury unflavored Protein drink. It did not work. Am going to try Isopure grape frost next. Wish me look! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Enerfina 50 Posted March 9, 2012 Isopure isn't that bad for my taste buds, a friend of mines bought a couple and did not like the taste and gave em to me, its not that bad its sweet n it does have a weird signature i guess after taste lol.. so far i have tried their banana pine apple mango , and this red one i think its raspberry strawberry or something,, ur just going to drink something after wards n brush ur tongue because it makes ur mouth dry.. n tongue feel icky.. but loving the Protein content.

Shemy-away 83 Posted March 10, 2012 I think I'm going to try using the Isopure Protein Drinks to make Protein Jello. Has anyone tried this yet? How did it come out? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
