For those who are past the post-op liquid diet......do you still drink protein shakes (as much) or at all....or do you just incorporate protein into your diet other ways?????

Haven't taken even a sip of a protien drink since 2 weeks after surgery. I don't have trouble getting in my protien (most days). A lot of people drink them on a regular basis. I don't care for them...

Also, it is liquid calories that don't fill you up because it goes right through your band. Good source of protien though.

Good luck to you!

Thank you so much for your response!!! I can tell you know that I will be same, and from your weigh loss I see you have been successful. Again thank you!

I still drink them as I am not hungry in the mornings, but know I need something. I just use slim fast.

I will have to get in my protein by diet because these protein drinks/shakes are not for me due to taste and price.
