I'm starting Clear Liquids Sunday the 27th does that include the Protein Shakes or do I not do the Protein shakes on the clear liquid day?



Yes drink protein shakes on the clear liquid diet. Your doctor should hsve given you a menu/schedule

On my pre op liquid diet I could have Protein Shakes but not first week post op. Every dr is different.

I've been assuming no Protein Shakes on the clear liquid diet--just stuff that is actually clear, like Water, Crystal Light, broth, herbal tea, Jello, sugar-free popsicles. I do have some Protein water, too, which is clear.

Your list may be different, but I just checked my post-op clear liquid list, and the protein shakes aren't on it--they're added on the full-liquid diet. So better to check your instructions, I think . . .

My surgery is Monday. I'm ready. Going to finish cleaning out the fridge tonight, throw away anything that can't be eaten in the next couple of weeks.

I was sleeved on 8/10/17 and had cravings for certain foods that I was allowed in the next level as I advanced to the next phase of the post op diet. Crazy thing is once I actually ate the food, I didnt want it. In fact, it didnt even taste good to me. I think its just our minds going through changes...Stay strong! You can do it!!!!

      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.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      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? 🤷‍♀️
