i can not drink any kind of shake any more , i just cant get it down it gags the world out of me ,im not sure what to do for this last week of the post op diet , eat pudding, yogurth, drink milk and egg drop soup ..hmmmm will that be enough protein ...... 6 more days Im really all shaked out here ......but one good thing the scale keeps goin down :wub: .....any one any idea how to get protein without the shake-drama?

If this is per op diet I'm sorry but shakes are it from some dr maybe call your dr see if you can drink clear liquids broths ect? But you really get tired of those too post op. hang in there

I did see some good good juice high protein drinks today at Kroger in the produce area where they keep naked juice drinks they looked good but pricey. 3-5 a drink but it could give you a brake of the same old thing? Like I said before check with your dr to see if they are ok to drink. Good luck.

nono im post op i was banded on the 19th...

Unflavored protein is a good option. My first week post op I blended with strained hot and sour soup to get the protein in. My problem towards the end of the week was nothing seemed like it had flavor!

U can get enough protein from other fluids, greek yoghurt mixed with skimmed milk, home made green veg soup with loads of frozen peas ( stick blended to a liquid ) u need to follow doctors instructions tho, if he says shakes only then just find one that suits you. maybe some atkins drinks / meal replacement would taste better ...

i tried em so many ..yuck ... i cant do em nomore i been on em for almost 4 weeks all together i just need 6 more days till i move on to different foods .....

I got through my liquid stage without any protein shakes at all and still dont use them. I prefer protein from whole food and stick to that. In the UK there isnt the emphasis on protein shakes like the US and we are all still alive and healthy . 6 days to go .. just muddle through, and do what u can to get your daily amounts eaten if u dont manage it dont beat yourself up over it, nothing will happen to u in such a short time
