Trying out Genepro- 9 days post op DS

[Glamgirl 63]

Anyone have any ideas or can tell me how they use GENEPRO . I am only 9 days post op and im trying to reach Protein goal so I purchased Genepro.

When I left the hospital my dr said to make sure I drank 60 mg of Protein a day some people can’t to start off with they say it should take you about 45 mins to drink th3 11 oz of Premier Protein shakes then after about y weeks you work your way up

i still cant drink that much protein.. or eat it. cant wait for my 2nd follow up. I barely get 30-40 of Protein in... barely...

@GlamgirlAt 9 days out liquids are much more important than Protein. (I didn't get to 50 grams of protein till I was bout 6 months out). Don't worry about the protein that much right now. Concentrate on the liquids to stay hydrated.

Most people do the 30 days = 30 grams, 60 days = 60 grams, etc., model. If you can do that you're ahead of the game.

I inquired about GENEPRO on the boards and a poster (big viffer) gave valuable info on it . Unfortunately I dont know how to paste it here but basically Genepro cannot deliver 30grams of Protein as advertised I also believe they have legal problems based on thier claims. As postop says concentrate on liquids at this point.

Not doing what's popular just doing what's Right.

@Glamgirlif you want to add Protein and aren't crazy about shakes (I had to drink one for the first 2 years till I could eat enough protein but YMMV) have you thought about un jury? (It's one word but when I type it as such it doesn't link to the correct product). I didn't love it but a lot of DSERS I know did and do.

Yep:

And here is my long winded post about that awful stuff:

We all learn these things one way or another. I thought GENEPRO was a genius find. Thankfully I was on this forum and was straightened out by one of the vets.

Very normal. It'll get easier.
