blizair09 3,250 Posted November 1, 2016 I suggest using unflavored Protein powder and adding it to some of the pureed foods you are already eating. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KristenLe 5,979 Posted November 1, 2016 @@TanishaP The only way I get my Protein is with an unflavored Protein Powder as @@blizair09 suggested. If you don't do that - you'll probably have to supplement with shakes still (which is something I couldn't stand anymore). I bought GENEPRO and it is really good - I've added it to butternut squash and sugar free pudding and you can't even tell it's in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
indyjeff 45 Posted November 1, 2016 Ditto... I'm having at least one 25-30 gram shake a day, in addition to adding unflavored Protein (Genepro and Isopure) to my puree'd food (soups, chili, etc.). My goal is at least 90-100 grams of protein. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Authoritah 20 Posted November 2, 2016 I have my post-op appointment in 3 hours' time and am hoping to be cleared for the pureed stage also. I'm soooooooooo sick of liquids and Soups now! :-) Nice timing on this thread. Thanks everyone for the suggestions! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
