11 days post op probs with protein



Recommended Posts

I am now 11 days post op and I am getting worried that I cannot consume enough Protein. Not used to my newly sized stomach and how to exactly drink. Very nervous to put anything in there except Water. Is anyone else going through this and if so are there any ideas I can try?

Protein Shakes? Are you taking them as directed? I found Unjury chocolate classic to taste good like Nestles Quik

I have been trying to get them down, but I only get about a half down and that's is when I get pain in my stomach. Thank you for the suggestion. I will definitely try it.!

Just keep drinkiing the shakes-they taste better when cold so you may have to keep refrigerating them again. Unjury makes a chicken Soup flavor that tastes good and is lighter because its Water not milk. Also I did some of the fruit Protein powders with juice which is again a little lighter. I think we are used to just drinking stuff down and not realizing that we can't anymore but even if it takes you all morning just keep working on it. Isopure is like a juice and has a ton of protein but the taste isn't good. But you got to get that protein in. Hope that helps.
