Hi all, I am in week 3 puree stage........ Since ive gone on puree stage I just havent been able to stomach the Optifast shakes. My problem is im not getting enough Protein. My food for yesterday:

1 weetbix, 1/2 cup milk, 2 spoons benefibre

1/2 cup spag bol

1/2 cup baby food *2

1 ltr Water

Today its looking worse so far

1 weetbix+ 1/2 upn go+ benefibre

1/2 cup chicken rissotto

I am planning on having chicken and sweetcorn Soup for dinner

Prob have about 1ltr of water

Other problem being yesterdays food feels like a rock in my stomach (yes all food is pureed), just not feeling hungry.Trying to force myself to eat is not an option. Im thinking about buying some Protein powder to add to stuff but im lucky to eat what I am let alone add something else to it. Im thinking i might have to try n force myself to have at least 1 shake a day :(

Yeah, unflavored Protein Powder was a lifesaver for me (and stil is) as far as getting in my 70. I use nectar unflavored and mix it with hot cocoa or ovaltine and I can hold that down really well. I think I'll always need to rely on some sort of shake/drink to get my grams in until I'm ready to chow meat full time.

I drink Isopure. One bottle has 40 grams of Fiber with zero carbs.

Ugh, I wish I could. The taste of Isopure makes me gag. For some reason post-surgery I've been really sensitive to the taste of anything Protein Drink related and it usually isn't pleasant.
