I just had my surgery November eighth and I'm in the mushy stage, should I be measuring what I eat?

I feel kind of bloated before I even start to eat, so I'll eat a little bit but the feeling don't change. Like tonight I ate a little bit of mash potatoes , it was around a 1/4 of a cup. I could have ate more but I was scared I was eating too much already

unjury unflavored Protein Powder OR Now Sports Unflavored Protein Powder.

Unjury you will find on their website and NOW sports you can buy on Amazon. I have both and both are great and mix very well in food/drinks

What can you mix it with?

Everytime I come to the forums, there's a perfect conversation! I'm 1 week out and still on liquids till i see my surgeon tomorrow, then one week pureed, then one week mushes. Today is the first day I've felt as if i wanted to eat something - and not even a lot of anything - just some hot thick soup or a soft boiled again.

I too am afraid of overeating when I can eat, so I'm going to be sure to measure everytime! I'm going to ask my surgeon tomorrow if he wants me to drink my protein or eat it (after pureed stage). In any case, love reading all of the advice offered here. Hmm. Shall I break my liquid fast with pureed bean soup or hummus (on a spoon?) Wonderful!

Have a good night all!

What can you mix it with?

The Protein powder is 'unflavored', therefore you can mix it in anything. I mixed the powder in my Soups, cottage cheese, ricotta cheese, chicken broths, yogurts, applesauce (any way I can get my protein in at the time).

You can make your own delicious shakes by adding skim milk, half fruit, ice, and protein powder. really the possibilities are endless of what you can mix with unflavored protein powder, . experimenting is one of em,
