No I haven't! powder or is it already made?

The muscle milk light is what my nut recommended. It was the only Protein Drink I like. I would recommend the ready to drink over the powder.

Hello hek1127,

A drink my nut recommended for something that is tasty and you can carry ( i commute to work here in Philly) and has 16 gr of protien and counts towards your fluids is Gatorade G3.... found it at target for $1.59 per bottle its not bad ...kiwi strawberry has a " unique" taste. but the other flavors are not bad. hope this helps :-)

So my doc told me NO Protein Shakes or anything that doesn't come from food. Problem is, I don't feel like I'm getting enough Protein. I'm hitting maybe 25g a day and that's me eating as much protein packed things I can find. I'm only like a week and a half post op. I just feel like I'm the only one on here that isn't in taking some extra form of protein. Any ideas?

Your not allowed Protein Shakes? Wow that's crazy. Did he say why? I'm not allowed to have regular food for 2 more weeks, that's after the purée stage. ???

I'm required to make up my Protein with supplements. Sixty grams of protein is like 6-8 oz. of beef...no way could I eat all that!

The first 2-3 days I was on clear liquid, then day 3-7 I was on purée foods, now from day 8 - 4 months I'm on soft foods.

Went in for my post op today. 5 days out from surgery and I'm down 7.5 lbs. God is so good because I am feeling great. Drove myself to the doctor today. Haven't had pain meds in days. My back and stomach start to feel really tense after I've been up and about for a few hours but that's really it.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
