Full liquids?

[fletcherette 203]

My drs post op says day 3-17 to do full liquids. I have also seen other post op diets say no full liquids until day 7. Im currently 5days post op and wondering if its a good idea to begin drinking my champion nutrition whey Protein stack shakes? I mix them with 20oz of Water so they are fairly thin and could easily be sipped through a straw. It has the consistency of a clear liquid its justnot clear. Thoughts? When did you begin Protein Drinks besides unflavored mixed with Clear Liquids

Yes!

I began Protein drinks the second day after surgery. you need the Protein and nutrition to heal quicker. There are clear protein drinks out there if you are still on clear liquid....isopure, I believe. I buy powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury chicken broth flavor and unflavored to add to Soups and drinks. good luck.

just reread that you are on full liquids starting day 3. do as your doctor says.....and do full liquids with protein. my full liquid started on day 3 also.

I was only on clear liquids while in the hospital, after that it's been full liquids. Each doctor does things a little bit differently, just do what the doc says and you'll be good.
