Yesterday I went and had drain removed. I was averaging 70 grams of protein and my NUT said to back down to 60. So today they all taste terrible. Guess I will try them again tomorrow. Weird huh? Any suggestions? I'm on full liquid 11 days post op.

Try some new mix-ins like almond milk, soy milk, a bit of banana, powdered peanut butter. Dying of curiosity, though: can you have TOO MUCH protein? Why did she say to back down?

She said she didn't want to overwork my kidneys. I have had good luck with Bariwise and Nectar until today.

Weird. My NUT said to stay in the window of 60-80 grams a day from the get go and for life.

I was doing 80-90 pre-surgery and now I am hitting 55-60 and I'm 5 weeks out. I'm struggling and will probably continue to struggle a little bit. I just hit purees yesterday. Unfortunately, I also have suffered from the omg these shakes suck now syndrome. It gets better and eventually they become more tolerable again.

Good luck to you.

I'm 5 weeks out and still can't stand my shakes I came to like preop. However, to be completely honest, I haven't opened one is awhile. I hope I'm not bald in a few months. :-)
