No more protien shakes

[celebrate*me 52]

I'm two weeks post op today and am soooo tired of protien shakes. Tommorow I start puréed foods. I am still having trouble sipping. I get thirsty and so i gulp too much at a time and feel miserable. This has gotta get better. Ooh and left side is still sore. I have lost 16 pounds so far in exactly two weeks. I thought it would be more because I prolly only do about 250 cals a day!

You are on track and it gets better! Hang in there and take it day by day.

Yeah, I HATE those horrible shakes too. I just pinch my nose and sip. Just do your best and you will get though. Hang in there

I am 1 week postop and staying at moms. Couldn't stomach the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury shakes at Hosp or the lemon tea Protein supp I had for after discharge. Smells and tastes nasty. At this point I am on liquids and no Protein unless in some if the Peanut Butter or baby food I seem to be able to get down a little. Someone should really work on this stuff....

Yep and I've tried all didn't brand shakes and flavors. Tired of the milkey and watery taste

As much as you hate the shakes you MUST drink them it is VERY important to get your Protein to sustain life.

I could not drink them after surgery. In fact it was not until 7 months later that I can stand them. I had all the side effects of lack of Protein. Trust me it is much better to get your protein in. I found a protein that I can mix with 4 oz of liquid. I get my protein in and can drink it in one gulp.

I just made Protein pudding, using 2 cups of skim, 2 scoops of Protein Powder, and 1 small box of SF pudding. It's really yummy, and I think u can get 6-8 servings out of it.
