Hey everyone I have a couple questions. So I'm about to have surgery on July 10th and I am about to start my 2-week liquid-only diet. Can anyone recommend a good protein flavorless whey powder. I've tasted the clear drinks and I really do not like them. If anybody has recommendations I would appreciate the information. Also was there a lot of discomfort after the surgery? Like are you able to do normal stuff everyday? I know that I can't be lifting anything. I was also wondering if there was another person who was pre opt that might have any kind of anxiety/nerves. I haven't gotten to that point yet but I'm pretty sure that I might as I get closer to my surgery date and wouldn't mind having somebody to talk to. Thanks in advance! [emoji3]

The only protein shake I enjoy is Premiere. The first few days after surgery, you will need rest because your body needs time to heal. I was in the mall walking five days afterwards. I couldn't lift more than five pounds for six weeks, so please be careful with that. Anytime you need to talk, reach out. We're all here to help you get to the loser's bench.

Have you tried several of the protein waters? I thought the Isopure was dreadful, but Protein20 wasn't bad.

Good luck!

I'm on day 13 of liquids. After day 5 you'll hate the taste of everything. Lol. I put a drop of hot sauce in my broth and drank my shakes over ice. Chew alot of gum and have mouth wash handy. Good luck. It gets easy after day 3.

I am on day 8 of liquids .I use the lean shake by GNC. All the flavors are nice. I feel like my taste buds are completely gone. ?

I know they gave me the orange mango one to taste and I did not like it that was from the premier brand. I have always been sensitive to flavored water. So I'm trying to fine a protein powder that's flavorless. I can probably look into the protein20. I haven't heard of that one but I can try it.

The premier protein waters are horrible . Umm to answer some questions yes my nerves and anxiety came before and after surgery but don’t worry it’s apart of the process this is a major life decision you are making the better you !!! Embrace it . As for doing normal stuff everyday . After the first weeek I was good to walk , take my trash out wash dishes and all the normal household duties and I went back to work in a week lol . Taking it EASY IS IMPORTANT! Use your LEGS TO BEND ! And don’t lift anything heavier than 10lbs. Try to drink water , protein shakes and eat sugar free popsicles for liquids and you will be fine
