Hi northstar9148...

here are some ideas I hope will help you. I don't know what brand you buy but...Buy a brand (any no name brand is fine at your local wal-mart or health food store even a big supermarket should carry Protein powders. Buy a brand that is whey (milk) or soy. I think if you buy a vanilla (there is other flavours as well) flavoured brand you will have more options for shakes. Less than 5 grams of Carbs and 20 to 30 grams of protein and NO sugar.

here's one recipe

strawberry banana Protein Shake

1 scoop Protein Powder

1/2 cup skim milk, almond milk or cashew milk.

1/2 cup plain low fat yogurt

4 whole strawberries (frozen if want) or blueberry, raspberry

2 inch piece of banana

1/2 teaspoon vanilla

1 package sweetener (optional)

Throw into blender and blend until smooth....delicious

you can also replace the berries with peaches or even use coco powder (plain no sugar powder not hot choc mix)

try using flavourings and extracts orange, root beer, maple, for baking ...DO NOT use juice, honey or sugar for flavour.

Did they give you IV fluids? Ask them about the broth. I can't imagine why you couldn't have it.

That's what I'm starting to wonder. My temperature was 98 but I usually run a lower grade at 96 or so. I'm hoping it is a big and goes away soon.

Better now than after surgery.
What's your surgery date? I think you still might wanna be on the lookout for a different shake or unflavored Protein powder. You don't want to be facing this post op.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
