One week post surgery and feeling hungry

[Chas74 56]

My surgeons office sells it. But I've bought it online as well. They also have unflavored Protein you can hide in your Jello.< /p>

My surgeon makes us wait a full week before we're allowed even Protein, but I cheated and had protein a few days early, and started to feel better almost immediately. I absolutely could not start to heal without SOME calories and protein. Just my experience!

My surgeon does to and by the time i started protein which was yesterday i was so weak i couldnt get out of bed. I wouldnt recommend anybody waiting that long cause ive been real sick so hopefully after couple days of protein i will feel better again

Does it ever make you wonder how or why they choose the things you can have and at what time? liquid, puréed, soft.... Everyone is so different.

From what ive seen on here every dr is differant. I saw some people getting to eat crab on second wk, im sooo jealous. I dont recommend anybody waiting 7 days before Protein though, thats just too long and i was so miserable, hungry and weak

GNC and Vitamin Shoppe sell Isopure zero carb clear Liquid Protein drink. 40 gms of Protein in a 20 oz. bottle. I've made sure to drink one of them a day in between my clear liquid and I feel good 6 days post op.

yes, they have several flavors(5). It is recommended from my doc for the clear stage.....

I dont understand why there are so many different rules.. I was aloud to eat purees immediately. I ate soft eggs the day after my surgery. maybe the Clear Liquids thing is so u dont dehydrate

in the begining but you starve...lol

Clear liquids were so difficult to get down those first fee days; I can't image trying to get down puréed that early out!

Yes, I was wondering the same thing. Why do some Drs say you can have Protein at first and some not. Its really confusing to me because i dont have a NUT to help me. I am 5 days post op and feel like I am starving. I am suppose to be on the clear diet till my Dr visit Monday but dont' know if I will make it that long. I did drink some Isopure clear drink today and feel a little better.

Isopure clear liquid should be fine because its a clear liquid as supposed to a ready to drink Protein Shake, which us a full liquid.
