I am 10 days post op and decided stupidly to try a few spoonfuls of cream of mushroom (which is allowed at this point) around 2:30 this afternoon. It's now dinner time and there is no way I can even get in a sip of a protein shake. Lesson learned

Won't make that mistake again. I've been full and felt crappy for hours! Would it be a mistake to try and drink the protein tonight closer to bed time?

Is it that you are just to close to surgery or we every be able to do the healthy snack between meals?

You will be able to do healthy snacking in between down the line...this was just wayyyy too soon! I'm still full 3 hours later, can't even get a sip in so that means not meeting my protein requirements for the day.

Try again later. It may go easier.
