I'll be 6 days postop on Christmas. Doctor said I could try yogurt and cottage cheese by day 4, will try later today. If that goes well, would it be okay to try some thinned mashed potatoes or yams, or.. something usually served for the holiday? Would powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury mix in okay with those?

I would stay away from carbs. Try cream of chicken Soup made with high Protein skim milk.

Bariatrcpal's store sells chicken and noodle (which you don't eat I gave them to my hubby when I used it) it has I believe 15 grams of Protein. They also carry other kinds of soup with added protein. I also use Non-flavored Protein powder that I add to other foods it helps with getting in much-needed protein to aid in healing. Just a few tricks. Get in lots of protein and lots of fluids.

Which unflavored protein to you like most?

I love love GENEPRO it is the only unflavored I have used that is definitely nonflavored!! You can order online, but I also was told that GNC stores carry it. But not the one we have here in our town.
