Had my surgery on 6/6. I came home Friday afternoon. I have been drinking only Carnation instant breakfast, 4oz every 2 hrs and then water,tea etc during the other hour. I really need to know if I can eat anything else. I don't think I can do this for 3 weeks. I need to call the doctor tomorrow as I can't take this, it's awful. I read lots of things where people love this and are doing so great....how are they doing it for the first three weeks. Can someone write down what they ate so I can see some options? Ay help is appreciated, I feel like crap!

Mami. I love coconut Water. What brand do you like. My fav is the Zico!

Let me check vita coco one hundred percent coconut water eleven point one oz 15 grams of sugar but remember I only had it once.

The protine shake for the pre op what is the best one. I have been doing Herbalifetea for a while now will that work or not clear enoughf?

I will be calling my weight center tomorrow as I can't live like this. Water, tea, broth and carnation instAnt Breakfast. I will see if I can have yogurt etc. my center does not want you to eat anything that they have not approved as they know how it effects your system.

Where have you found the isopure liquid ....and does it taste good ? What favors does anyone recommend?

I am 4 months post and still not allowed to drink oj but every doctor is different

Coconut water is allowed in my diet also oranges not orange juice just don't swallow white stuff. Even if coconut water has 15 grams of sugar I drink it because it helps me with keep hydrated

I found some at GNC. I love all the flavors! Right now I have a case of blue raspberry that is delicious!

The Isopure Protein drink tastes kinda like filmy Gatorade. It kinda coats my tongue. But it's not a bad taste. It is tolerable. They are best cold cold cold and so far I have tried the fruit punch one and the blue raspberry. The fruit punch is not very sweet, the blue raspberry is very sweet. My taste buds apparently changed following surgery and I don't like super sweet things right now... So I don't care for the blue raspberry. I also have mango peach to try. I only purchased them for my 1 week of clear liquid diet following surgery which I am almost done with. They are quite expensive (over $5.00 for 1 20 oz bottle) but they were better tasting than my Body Fortress Cookies and Cream mixed with Water ( MAJOR YUCK!) They can be purchased at GNC. My GNC let me purchase 3 individual bottles in 3 different flavors (they had to open cases to let me do this) but I didn't want a whole case of them. 12 bottles is more than 1 full month of ALL my Celebrate Vitamins, Iron and Calcium. Yikes! Good luck finding something you enjoy.

I could not do isoplus either! Ughh the protein journey continues.
