I tried vanilla muscle milk and wanted to vomit! It tasted sour and yuck. chocolate went down better. I also got some gatorade g2, because I am scared to death that i will get dehydrated. I got up this morning and went to kroger. I was getting all kinds of stares because i know the clerks are used to seeing me zip around the aisles 4 nights out of the week, and I was walking like a snail this morning. I stocked up on food/drink for this phase.

There's just something about chocolate I love and to think even after the surgery I can still have it + it's good for me. I take Bariatic fusion Chocolate Protein Shake mmmmmmm can't wait to drink the other half tonight haha

on clears until monday then I will make 1/2 batches of frosty shake. The Isopure grape isn't that great, but I added Grape MIO and it is much better. I am downing liquid with no problem really. 1/2 sf cherry Jello made me extremely full and that = 1-3/4 ounces.

Monday I will try a real shake. I'm very flemmy still and I have post-nasal drip and i cough a lot, though I have an inhaler and use the spirometer a lot. I'm worried about the shake causing more conjestion. If this isn't better by Monday I will call the surgeon, to have a chest xray and make sure I didn't end up with pneumonia. I did all the right things, I walked and sipped, and used spirometer.

Re-read your post-op paperwork. That will tell you whether you can start shakes or not. It's best to follow your doc's orders. If you have any questions, call the nurse or office tomorrow morning.
