Hi marcescobar22@hotmail.com,

Yes, it can be super tough to get in your Protein right after surgery! It sounds like you’ve got a good start with the Protein Powder in your broth and with your yogurt. I think adding a couple of shakes to your day should help you hit your goals.

You might also look for a low-sugar Protein Shake (or protein powder). If you’re interested in “all-natural” foods, look for a shake labeled “natural” or sweetened with stevia instead of artificial sweeteners like aspartame or sucralose.

These are some suggestions: Pure Protein whey Protein (vanilla or chocolate), About Time shaes (http://tryabouttime.com/), MRM whey concentrate, Jay Rob Protein, Terra’s Whey.

If you can get in a couple of shakes a day, plus some protein in your broth, plus a yogurt, you should be pretty close to hitting that 60-gram goal.

Also, remember to take your time. It’s not going to be easy to get protein down at this point so early after surgery. It can take 30 minutes or more to get a shake down.

I hope that helps!

Natalie
