1 week post op diet & protein



Recommended Posts

For your 1 week post op diet, are you supposed to have Protein?

im scheduled for 9/25. The 1 week post op per my dr is Clear Liquids and protein.... looking at you tube videos, several dietitians and fellow sleevers talk about purely clear liquids - WITHOUT protein.

What's your 1 week protein diet like? Protein/no protein?

Any recipe suggestions?

My post-op diet was three days clear liquids and then full liquids, including three Protein Shakes per day. So, yes, plenty of Protein. I've read over and over that it's important for healing.

By clear they mean you can see through it. So like broth's and bouillon's. Yes you need Protein. I highly recommend Unjry chicken Soup flavor protein. It tasted just like Top Ramen chicken soup. it was only 90 calories and have 21 grams of protein and it's see through so good for your clear liquid, and puree phase. It was a great break from all the sweet Protein Shakes. It allowed me to drink something that tasted savory which helped me get through the liquid only phase.
