Ok..I am about 18 days out and still need to be on purée diet. No soft foods for me, body cannot tolerate it. So I have been going to smoothie king and getting a small gladiator high protein shake, strawberry flavor, I have them add a 1/2 banana and pineapple to shake. I love the shake..it has 40 grams of protein. Natural sugar that is in banana and pineapple only .. I sip on the protein drink for about 2 hours .. Goes down really well.. And is so cool to drink. Has anyone else tried protein shakes from smoothie king? Comments would be appreciated.

I had one on the 24th. Then, I was 7 days out. It was a nice treat but I was only able to handle about 1/2 in 2hrs. I'll certainly go again.....maybe tomorrow!

Yes! I had one today! I'm 13 days out and had a gladiator with pineapple. They're absolutely delicious (: unfortuenly the gladiator is really the only one you can have when you look at all the sugar that comes in the other ones /: really wanting to purchase the gladiator protein powder... 50 bucks tho!

I am really surprised that your doctors cleared you for pineapple so early out.. I definitely wasn't allowed to blend fruit into a protein shake. As it was one of the lasts foods to be added when I finally hit no restrictions.

I had one the other day and today. I sipped on 1 over the course of two days.

the onyl fruit i can have is mellons or berries...so I did double strawberry..OMG these things are so good. Feels like a special sweet treat

I love them!!! I found Smoothie King about 1 month post op and hit them up 3-4 times a week, especially on the days I am struggling with Protein. I am 6 months post op and still swear by them. I bought their Protein Powder and try to make my own smoothies at home, but mine are never as good as theirs!!

Yeah smoothie king has good smoothies but there's another place called super smoothie which I think their smoothies taste better maybe it's just where I live but I like super smoothie better

Looks like the only Super Smoothie location is in Doral, FL so I guess I will stick with my Smoothie King, that's a long trip from St. Louis for a smoothie.
