I recommend Spirutein Shakes. It's sold in health food stores (I think it's made by nature's answer). It comes in sooo many different flavors. Plus it has all of the essential vitamins you need (and may not be getting). I drink 16 oz of them every day and get 28grams of Protein.
I'm in the same boat. I am SO discouraged today. I was supposed to go for my first fill on 12/4 (surgery was 10/21), but can't get an appt with the Dr. until 12/14. I feel like it's such a setback! I've only lost 2 lbs in the past 3 weeks (even though I'm not eating that much). I am thinking of going back to strictly liquids after thanksgiving until the appt.:thumbup:
I am 3 days post op. Today I drank about 4oz of an alba drink (on my recommendation sheet). It took 45-60 min to drink it. 8 hours later and I STILL feel full. Is this normal? I did not drink excessively or quickly, but can't believe I am still full. Did I do something wrong? What can I do to alleviate this feeling?
