I'd be sick of the taste too. What kind of Protein shakes are you doing - the prepackaged ones? Have you yet tried the kind you make in your blender with diet milk, fruit, yogurt, and Protein powder? Those are super and taste more like real smoothies.
Thanks, guys! Yeah but what about the solid food I ate the day before surgery? Well, turned out okay: I went for a long walk this morning and then when I got back home it finally happened. I'm just glad to know that things are working and moving.
