Recipes and Protein Shakes

[banded2bethin 0]

Hi Everyone! I am getting banded on 7/24/09 and wanted to see if anyone had any good Soup recipes for the liquid phase and beyond? I have to be on a liquid diet for 1 week, then on to mushies. Also, does anyone have any suggestions for Protein Shakes. I have been told about the Carnation Instant and the Slim Fast... any other suggestions that do not contain whey?

Thanks!

my favorite still is

vanilla Protein Powder

Decaf instant coffee

vanilla

splenda and

ice blended together....it took the place of my coffee in the morning

frozen cherries, choc. Protein powder and splenda was like a dessert too!

Ive been banded 3 days and doing the liquid phase..it also include sug. free Jello and Ice pops.

for the broth i Buy low sodium broth i add a pinch of Finely grated Romano cheese and a dash of back pepper heat it uo the cheese dissolves and it tastes great believe me. My friends say eating with me is like having a catch with Mikey Mantle..good luck..

QUESTION....... why no Whey Protein? ??? I have a huge jug of it, that I was told by my doctors patient liason it is fine to use, so THAT IS WHAT i have been making all of my Protein Shakes with for the last 3/4 weeks, also adding it to just about everything else! YIKES!! What is wrong with it?
