I was on full liquids right after surgery 2 shakes a day.

I was on full liquids for 3 weeks, then soft foods. Every doctor varies, yet all seem to get results if you follow their plan. I think of it as multiple paths to the same place. Best wishes, and do what your doctor says.

I'm required to start today, my first. 3 Protein shakes a day and clear liquid. Sounds like it takes a while to get them down, not like before surgery. Cooling mine down now, will try to get it going soon. Not hungry, but told we really need the protein and Vitamin C to heal quickly

Yes it does take a little while to get them down. They told me no longer then 1 hour. They gave me a tip and said 2 ounces every15 minutes. I have a question for you. What do you mean ur cooling us? Do you heat it up.
