sillygirlee 3 Posted March 23, 2013 I'm 2 weeks post op. Can I blend a banana in with a vanilla Unjury Protein Shake? Please! I'm looking for some variety here! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oregondaisy 2,021 Posted March 23, 2013 Go to the food forum and there is a huge list of Protein Drink recipes. There are a lot of sugar free syrups you can buy that make a huge difference in the taste. the only person who should tell you if you can advance your diet is your surgeon.

mikeross 216 Posted March 23, 2013 you know a whole banana has almost 30g of carbs right? If your trying to lose and not maintain I would not eat them. 1 sillygirlee reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
puppyphat 397 Posted March 23, 2013 At 2 weeks post op, you'll not be eating anywhere near the amount needed to maintain, bananas are high in potassium which helps with fatigue and muscle repair. I ALWAYS have a banana post workout and I'm not a slow loser. The benefits way out weigh the carbs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
