During pre-op I drank Premier Protein shakes and NOW I am sick of them! The smell of them gross me out!

I am on the pureed stage of food...ive been eating tuna fish, eggs, greek yogurt, Beans, string cheese, chicken breast, broccoli (steamed)

I also feel super tired and wasted when I eat only protein all day...when I have more complex carbs I feel better...

Cottage cheese and milk make me feel sick...

I'd rather eat 'real' food than fill up on shakes...but I definitely cannot eat 90 grams of 'real' food a day...I stay full for at least 3-4 hours..plus drinking my fluids is a full time job too...

I would love some ideas as to how to incorporate more protein with my real food meals...

I guess Protein Shakes are gonna be a must-do for huh??

Thoughts/advice?

I'm just moving into puréed but there's some really great ideas here. Going to sve it

I, too, used the Premier Protein Shakes and was getting sick of them after surgery (I am about 9 weeks out). I read someone else's tip to add instant coffee to the chocolate premier shake and now I drink that every morning because it tastes sooo good I add ice to water it down just a bit and add a Tablespoon of instant decaf coffee (before I add the ice)...it's like having a mocha coffee. I usually have a Fage yogurt for breakfast and by the time I am done showering and getting ready for work, I can start drinking this shake while I drive to work...easy routine! and 43 grams of protein by the time I get to work
