ashley624 21 Posted October 2, 2012 I'm preparing for surgey on the 15th of November. I've ordered some samples of Unjury and Syntrax Nectar. I was wondering how long after surgery are you on these Protein shake/ supplements? I know the Vitamins are forever...I'm going to start looking for those now but the protein is what I'm concerned about. I know they are pricey so I want to prepare myself.

kozmo 5 Posted October 2, 2012 I would say a few months mabe more. Depending on how long it takes you to eat enough to get the Protein in yourself with food.< /p> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Threetimesacharm 1,400 Posted October 2, 2012 In my opinion it can be a long time. I know some have posted that once losing their weight still use shakes: they are convenient, good for you and an easy way to get in lots of Protein and Vitamins. Find one you like in different flavours and enjoy! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NJSleeveboy 212 Posted October 2, 2012 Luckily My doc only makes you do one week on the shakes.. One week pre-op and that's it!! THat was hard enough! lol.. Then Clear Liquids in hospitals. pureed from day 2 to 2 weeks and starting 2 weeks mostly normal diet!! Yesterday was first real meal. YUM!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
diochick 40 Posted October 3, 2012 I'm almost 7 months out, and a few days a week I'll have a Protein Shake for Breakfast. If you don't like the taste of them, then by all means stop when you're able to get your Protein allotment in without using them. I found one I absolutely adore, so I make a breakfast "milkshake"out of it, banana, milk, Peanut Butter and ice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
