Crosby 303 Posted March 6, 2015 You should have gotten specific timelines for everything from your surgeons office / NUT. Look through your materials or call them. I have seen where this differs so best to get your specific directions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James Marusek 5,244 Posted March 6, 2015 Most individuals that undergo surgery find that their taste buds change. There are a variety of Protein shakes on the market available. It is important to find one that you can tolerate. So experiment. Immediately after surgery, the primary divers are meeting your Protein, Vitamins and fluids requirements. Meals are secondary. Your body is converting stored fat into energy. Thus you lose weight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jann0929 1 Posted March 6, 2015 I had my surgery 2/24/15 also! I'm on shakes now. I use Adkins shakes I can drink about 1/2 a shake at a time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
