Hi Kylea..

I used to have about 2 cups of skim milk a day.. it was the major contributor to my proteins.. i could not keep the clear liquid Protein Drinks down..

I also used to have fat free yogurt.. thinned/whisked with 2 parts water..

I've used it on day 4 and 5 very small Amount and slow. Created some gas but other the. That I had no issues

yes, I definitely drank a lot of milk after the first week of Clear Liquids and drank a lot of if for 2 weeks straight until I got to mushies... Then I could get Protein elsewhere!

If you are on full liquids give it a try. Go slow though as many have intolerance to milk after surgery.

i keep posting this but if you can find "over the moon" milk it has higher Protein regular milk 11 g cup....also it's nonfat and 120 calories....milk down easier alot of liquid post op.

My doctor included it as part of my 2 weeks Clear Liquids phase. I discovered I am intolerant post op and feel much better now that I am NOT drinking milk. Every one is different so I hope you have better luck than I did.

I drank almost four cups of skim milk a day with my Protein. Only thing I could stand to drink

I'm lactose intolerant after surgery as well. In 18 months, I've had milk twice. Both times I had problems. That means that ice cream and cottage cheese don't work for me either, which is probably a good thing. I can do cheese without too many problems, but I try not to put too much of it into my sleeve.

If you have an HEB in your area, they carry a brand called Mootoopia (non fat) that gives you 12g of protein! Just started buying that and choc milk for a snack.< /p>

My doctor won't allow the skim milk our mootopia, too much sugar in both. I use Water or unsweetened almond milk. 30 calories

I use skim plus. 5.5 grams of Protein per 4oz.

That was my main source of Protein for the first three weeks. I tried to make Protein drinks but they nauseated me. I asked my dietician and she was actually surprised I was doing Protein drinks. She told me that getting my protein from natural sources was far better for you.

I drank probably 5 glasses of skim milk a day. I also added skim milk powder to Soup and pudding for some extra protein. I usually got at least 50g of protein in doing that. And I felt MUCH better than I did when I was trying the protein drinks.
