How Fast Do You Drink A Protein Shake??



Recommended Posts

I'm one week post op... It takes me about 10min to drink a 10oz Protein Shake I feel full after but not so full that I'm stuffed (I guess that's how I got here, I always ate till the STUFFED feeling lol) am I drinking too fast or is this fine?

Yes. My doc said I really shouldn't take more than 5 or 10 mins to drink the shake. Happy drinking. :)

Just don't try gulping it down, as it might go down slowly

I usually take about 15 minutes, but I go slow intentionally to keep from rushing the rest of my meals. I use the slow speed for liquid or solid.

I use a Protein Shake to take my meds in the morning so I guess I drink it pretty slowly. But if I have one for a snack I slam it down because it is about the only thing I can do that with. :P

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
