I had my band put in on the 16th. Is it too soon for me to drink a Protein shake? I have been on Clear liquids, but I would like a Myoplex shake or at least a few drinks of one.

The issue as told to me by multiple RDs on the straws is the air trapped in the straw and how this gets in the pouch taking space where there isn't much to begin with.

What my doc told me was that using a straw would cause me to take in liquids too fast for the pouch.
