My drs post op says day 3-17 to do full liquids. I have also seen other post op diets say no full liquids until day 7. Im currently 5days post op and wondering if its a good idea to begin drinking my champion nutrition whey Protein stack shakes? I mix them with 20oz of Water so they are fairly thin and could easily be sipped through a straw. It has the consistency of a clear liquid its justnot clear. Thoughts? When did you begin Protein Drinks besides unflavored mixed with Clear Liquids

Yes!

I began Protein drinks the second day after surgery. you need the Protein and nutrition to heal quicker. There are clear protein drinks out there if you are still on clear liquid....isopure, I believe. I buy powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken broth flavor and unflavored to add to Soups and drinks. good luck.

just reread that you are on full liquids starting day 3. do as your doctor says.....and do full liquids with protein. my full liquid started on day 3 also.

I was only on clear liquids while in the hospital, after that it's been full liquids. Each doctor does things a little bit differently, just do what the doc says and you'll be good.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
