Hi, I am 8 days post Op, just starting my 2nd week but feeling very weak because my Dr's diet does not have any sort of protein until week 3. I'v seen that alot of people are taking protein shakes or powder to mix since first days. Today I just could not help my self and I had a Svelty drink yogourth. I already send an e-mail to my Dr. And I am waiting for hes comments. If you can give me some advice please!!

What is your pre op diet supposed to be ?

Sorry. Post op I mean ...

It is the same as 1rst week. Clear liquids, chicken broth, posicles, gatorade, fruit juce.

Unjury makes a chicken broth with 20 g of protein in it, it's actually not terrible either. They also have unflavored protein powder you can add to anything.

Thank you! Just wnted to know if a yogourth today was a bad idea, I will keep on the broth.

You should definitely add protein powder even on the liquid phase you need it. The body needs protein to function. Are you sure you're reading the diet right.

Btw.you know clear liquids also means things like Isopure and other Protein Drinks like Protein 10..which is clear liquid but loaded with protein. That will definitely get your energy level pack up.

. Yes, I already send an email to the clinic and the doctor. i think is not ok, also found other errors on the diets for next weeks, on the mesurements it has some oz, cup and liter!!! On 3rth week it saids: cchicken, beans, vegetablrs, tomato, ... But in any part it indicate that this food most be raw or cooked, on pure or peaces. It is a very dissapointing issue about the service. Sorry for my spelling. English is not my original languaje. I live in Mexico, I will look for those clear protein on Gnc. Thank you!

i agree with the isopure. even though i was allowed protein shakes during stage one, i preferred the isopure because i wasn't sure i could stomach creamy things at first. the isopure was like protein packed kool aid, i would definitely recommend it.
