mabarbee 2 Posted December 26, 2015 100 of Protein is a lot. My goal for week one was only 40, although I was able to get at least 60 in with two premier shakes. My ultimate goal is 70-90, I think I replied to you but trying figure out how to reply within the same post box Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mabarbee 2 Posted December 26, 2015 I think just being a few days out from surgery I didn't realize how much you don't get prepared for ahEads of time ...it truly is a learning processMy dietician told us not to stock up on stuff, so I didn't have much. I did purchase a kit with Vitamins and such, but the shakes are getting old. Thinking about some good chicken broth with plain Protein powder.< /div> Is there a good brand of unflavored Protein powder?

The shakes taste great. Sometimes it takes all day to get those two shakes in, doesn't it? I usually try for half and then go back for the other half later.

Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Ronjohn 84 Posted December 27, 2015 All of the unjury products seem to get really good reviews. I can't get it locally that I can find as of yet. I can get Isopure at GNC, so I might try that with some chicken broth. I do three shakes a day, so I start first thing in the morning and drink 2 ounces (Todd use for the shot glasses I can't use anymore) and then set the timer on my phone for 30 minutes. Take my shot and then repeat 30 minutes later. Probably gonna switch to 20 minutes tomorrow, so I can get my Water intake up. I'm going crazy tonight and gonna have a sugar free Popsicle....

Today has been the first day I've managed to drink even 1 Protein shake. I've had very little abdominal pain, but severe shoulder pain. I've been walking at least 15 minutes a day as the surgeon said it will help release the gas trapped in my upper back. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Ronjohn 84 Posted December 27, 2015 Try a heating pad for your upper back. I fell asleep in the recliner my first night home with it on and had very little issue with that since. The nurse recommended it at the hospital.
