batty_vsg 100 Posted December 17, 2018 I am two days shy of being one week post-op! However, my birthday is coming up in less than a week. My younger brother and husband are really kind of at a blank when it comes to getting me a birthday "cake," since I can't eat solids right now (my youngest brother made me a Keto birthday cake one year when I was doing that.) I told them it really doesn't matter, some nice Soup would be fantastic (Ooooo, from Panera right?) But they'd still the suggestion. Does anyone have any suggestions for them? I was thinking of a cake batter Protein Shake, but I didn't know where to start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frustr8 7,886 Posted December 17, 2018 And Celebrate your birthday with thoughts of the wonderful chances at future birthdays with your surgery. For this gift of renewed life, volunteer for others, a Soup kitchen, watch kids for a frazzled mom, read to or visit the elderly. Give someone a blessing in their life and you won't miss cake, ice cream and the other no- good- for- you type presents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
batty_vsg 100 Posted December 17, 2018 I really want to extend my thanks to those who answered. For what it's worth, I definitely do NOT want an actual cake (not even a huge cake person) but I was trying to humor the actions of some well-meaning members of my family. Honestly, I'd be happy with a cake batter Protein Shake (I was kind of hoping someone had tried a brand.) I'm not cleared for pureed until 12/27 and I'm sticking to that.
