I am 13 days post op and I am having a heck of a time getting my Protein in. Dr put me on puréed foods a couple of days early. I can't drink most shakes. What are some ideas for me to get my protein??? HELP........

I had a terrible time with the shakes too and ended up going to GNC to get 'protein shots' that come in 12 vials that are 3oz each. They contain 42 grams of protein per shot. Give it s try... Made by New Whey and several other brands.

BTW I am post op May 2008 ;)

Most Protein "shots" or "bullets", including New whey according to their nutrient list, include collagen protein. The high protein amount (usually 40g or more) combined with low volume (usually 3 to 4 oz) is extremely attractive to us RNY types but...

The digestibility of different protein types is ranked by the Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS) which has been adopted by the FDA, the World Health Organization, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The PDCAAS uses a scoring system of 0 to a maximum of 1 according to the digestibility of different types of protein by the body. Whey protein has a score of 1.0, milk protein 0.94, and soy protein 0.97. Collagen or Gelatin protein has a score of 0.08.

Collagen is also an "incomplete" protein meaning that it is missing one or more of the nine essential amino acids (essential because they cannot be manufactured by the body). Any incomplete protein could result in developing protein deficiency and is not recommended for weight loss surgery patients.

So collagen has extremely poor digestibility and is an incomplete protein. For these reasons, I would discourage anyone from using products containing collagen protein. All the protein in the world is useless if it cannot be digested by the body. There are many alternatives made with far superior whey, milk or soy Proteins.< /span>

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
