one week post op in need of nutrition advice

[miss_lalaaa 2]

I was sleeved July 10th & i just can't seem to find the nutrition i need. I am dying on all liquids but i definitely want to be successful so therefore i won't mess up. Any advice?

What are you eating now? Have you tried Unjury?

Well, im in my beginning phase. So I've only had the bariatric Protein Drinks they give... i am highly picky which causes me to not get the Protein i need so i need to find a shake i like. Never heard of unjury... where do you get that & is it pricey?

Unjury.com

It seems a little expensive, but from what I gather a lot of the folks on here like it. High in Protein as well. They also have unflavored protein you can add to anything.

I add the unijury unflavored to any Soup or pudding I'm eating. 10 grams of Protein for 1/2 a scoop and 21 for whole scoop. Its about $23 a can. U van also add Decaf sugar free instant coffee like Suiss Mocha to a vanilla protein shake! Van also make sf pudding with shake instead od water....I like the banana cream!

Unjury offers a sample pack to try. I ordered it as well as a sample pack from nectar. The unjury chocolate is pretty tasty. Not sure if you are a Peanut Butter fan,but there is this awesome stuff called PB2. It is like a peanut butter powder. By adding it to my shakes it takes away that sweetness they all have. I mixed a scoop of unjury with 8 ounces of skim milk and 2 tbsp of the PB2. A total of 34 grams of protein! I drink it in two settings because my doc said we cannot absorb more than 25 grams of Protein at once.

Once i was cleared for full liquids, I would take Amy's organic Soups, blend them in the ninja, thin with milk or Water, strain, heat and add unflavored protien to the mix. Don't overheat, the protien doesn't like that.

I then dropped the thinning, then eventually the straining, then moved on to softer foods and puree.

This created wonderful variety and flavor to what could be a very bland diet at the start.
