5Th Day Post Op - Struggling To Get In Protein On Broth!



Recommended Posts

How in the world am I able to get all this Protein in with broth? I'm hungry but not. I can't drink Water because my stomach spasms so I'm having a hard time get all those oz. in. I'm doing ok, but I know I'm failing at getting the requirements. I know I need them too because I'm slightly fatigued. I need suggestions but I don't know what they could be when your on Clear Liquids. I'm trying to be patient. Help!

The first couple weeks we are supposed to focus on fluids (per my dr). It is almost impossible to get all your Protein in at first. Just concentrate on liquids and do your best.

Fluids are most important try mixing 1/2 apple juice and 1/2 Water keep it by you and sip it I couldn't drink real cold drinks for awhile but everyone is different. How about popsicles and Jello all are fluids. This won't last long don't worry about the nutritional part we all can live a little while off what we have stored up in our body.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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...

        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.
