5 Days Post-Op

One more suggestion: When I was on clear diet I could drink the Protein drink, Isopure. It comes in a few flavors, all of which I didn't like very much but they are extremely high in Protein with no carbs. You mentioned not being able to have protein drinks yet, but maybe you're dr. means portein shakes. I was actually given this drink in the hospital after surgery and before my release. Again, I didn't love it, but I was fine with it knowing I was getting in much needed protein. Good luck with your recovery - in no time, you're going to love the improved you!

I liked the Isuopure grape and that was the only flavor I liked and yes they are clear like kool-aid and packed with protein!

I don't think I really drank all eight bottles of Water like my doc said. I just drank as much as I could...and each day I was able to increase. Lots of Popsicles. Bought myself a Ninja Pulse at target. Now everything can be a liquid. I'm on day 16 and must stay on liquids till Nov2.

Isn't the ninja awesome! It purées well durning the mushy stage too. A blender just does not do it especially since you re only doing a tiny amount!

Haven't heard of the ninja. I have a magic bullet. Do they compare does any one know.

I have magic bullet too and by far the ninja is better. The mb seems to over do it . Example: crushing ice turns it to snow and blocks the whole thing up. Do you know what I mean? I find that ninja gives a perfect blend/ purée hands down.

Who makes the ninja? I did body by vi shakes Pre surgery and ice didn't do well in it. Might have to try this other item

Never thought of that. I have unflavored clear mix. I will try it for Breakfast. Thanks so much.
