I am 6 days post op, I know it's frustrating watching TV trying to recover and get fluids and protein .... Then you have commercials 80% are fast food commercial or food related..so I am focused on my liquid diet for the next week and look forward to mushy food.. Just remember baby steps!! we chose this life change! so don't complain like someone forced you to get surgery... Think about the positive and that we will have to struggle a bit..but then the rewards will be worth the wait and effort.. My suggestion is to spend your free time reading and research healthy recipes... Exercise hang at your park or walk the dog... Around your block...Look for moral support....we are here to get passed those hurdles. If your in pain call your surgeon get liquid meds for pain and chewable vitamins....RELAX!!!! breath

I suggest you buy one of each and don't stock up yet until you find out what brands and favors you like, for chocolate and vanilla I like premier protein you can buy the case at Costco and save $$for more liquid or juice type protein Syntax Nectar has good selection.
