KELLIEDN 11 Posted April 3, 2016 I had my surgery on Friday April 1 Okay, so, my surgeon gave me a book for all the information that I need regarding before, during and after surgery. So I was just reading up on post op diet this morning and there is some conflicting information in here. One part says I can start the full liquid diet after I leave the hospital, another part says to start full liquids on day 5. I would love to start full liquids now as it would be much easier for me to get my Protein, liquid and calories. I'm having a hard time right now. Today I did get down two Sobe Lifewater Zero's. One had half a scoop of Protein powder. I also got in a high Protein chicken bullion, but all that adds up to 55 oz fluids, 30 g protein and 135 calories. I am not at all hungry and getting this down is a chore. If I could just switch to my Premier Protien shakes and some yogurt I would be so happy. I'm just not sure.

Inner Surfer Girl 12,015 Posted April 3, 2016 Since you have conflicting information and aren't having complications or issues, I would go with the one that would allow me to get in the most Protein. If it helps, my surgeon allowed Premier Protein during my clear phase. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KELLIEDN 11 Posted April 3, 2016 I just opened the book that came from the Weight Control Center that I was at for the 6 months preop stuff and it also says we go home on full liquids. Man, I've been killing myself today trying to get this down! I'm getting a Premier Protein shake and I'm going to enjoy it! Slowly, but still lol! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
