Hi,

This is probably a silly question but I'm confused, so here it is.

I am in the full liquid stage of my post-op diet and for my mid-day meal I am having a protein shake. Can I drink coffee after my shake or is the shake considered like a "solid"?

My Dr. considers it a liquid.

Thanks Terry!

I add one teaspoon of Starbucks VIA Italian Roast decaf to my Protein shakes. Yum!!! I kill two birds with one stone.

I added instant coffee to my pre op shakes, couldn't stomach them or stand the smell and the coffee took the edge off a bit.

I am at phase II....thicker liquids and shakes. I ave sample menu from doc ad it says to wait an hour to drink after meals and shakes. I also dont think i can drink coffee unless decaf. good luck!

I think I am one of the few who actually liked the taste of my pre-op shakes (not much I don't like the taste of lol ) but I do like the idea of adding instant coffee to the shake. Thanks

Thanks for your reply, I could not find any info about this topic.

Sometimes I add a teaspoon of instant pudding...pistacio almond taste great.

I love that! You can use coffee or any of the sf ff pudding mixes. Just be careful after liquids because Jello instant pudding mixes have 300 sodium per serving. I think their are 4 servings per box. Also PB2 is great to get Peanut Butter flavor!

I am an avid coffee drinker so I will have my coffee and protein shake together for breakfast. And when I finish my protein shake, I drink a bottle of water, and then I go for my second cup of coffee. Good luck.

If any of you like iced Michael coffees, try buying chocolate myofusion. Fill a shaker cup with ice, now fill with hot coffee and let melt down then add a scoop of myofusion. shake well. This is my Breakfast every morning. So yummy, not gritty. Also goes with vanilla flavored.
