The high protein shakes definitely keep the hunger away better on this liquid diet.

I bought some unflavored whey protein powder today, can you guys share a receipe or two with me if you use unflavored protein powder?

Getting my protein in SN: Iso-pure SUCKS.

if I have to stomach another protein shake, i'm gonna lose it!

Made it to the gym today, walked three miles...slowly. It is a beginning. I have been in a stall for a few weeks but feel good. Would like to move forward but I will need to learn to eat more protein and very little carbs. I need to stay away from anything too sweet because it yells my name when I remind myself how much I love sweets. Five weeks out and getting energy back, lost a size or so. Sometimes I feel like I am not going to lose weight any more, I guess it is just my brain wondering...

I think I'm lactose intolerant now. I have 3 different proteins and they are all whey based. What to do now?

Just curious how many calories we should be taking in the second week of surgery or should we just be worried about protein count?

Woke up this morning in a good mood. My protein shake taste better today. Day 3 is much better than Day 2...

So my issue is kind of weird to me. I have been on my pre-op diet for 13 days now and for the last four days I have only been able to drink 2 of the four protein shakes that I'm suppose to have, because for some reason I just am not hungry. I do have a cup of broth each day and I drink plenty water and other sugar free drinks, but I can't seem to get a hunger for those other 2 shakes. Has anyone else experienced this and is this normal?

I've been using my fitness pal to make sure I'm within my calorie goals for each day and to make sure my water intake, exercise and protein are right on point! Great tool!

Finally found a tasty way to meet my protein goals!

So happy, I just tried a high protein pancake! It was so go with alot of protein. Yayyyyyyyyyyy!

Yaayy!! off clear liquids, now protein shakes, for 1 week, then yogurt or pudding w/ protein added, for another week. Pain is easing, never had incision pain, just tummy pain, especially when drinking. Today I will try to take no pain pills..

Panda Express!! Kids meal with mixed veggies and string bean chicken. Chicken has 170 calories and 15g protein for a regular serving! I know the sodium isnt good, but a good choice any how! Only ate the string bean chicken. STUFFED! LOL!! I ate less than my 5 year old daughter!
