Ooh yea protein shakes should be on your full liquids list. I doubt they will be too thick but if they are you can dilute them with water.

I diluted my shakes (made my own) because they were too thick & sipped them too. Didn’t care if it took me a couple of hours. I was getting in protein & fluids. Win! Did the same with the soup
When have you guys started the shakes? I was thinking of trying today because I'm really struggling getting my protein in with just the water, and the shakes I got have 30g of protein per bottle. But I'm nervous because I'm afraid they might be a little too thick 3 days post op. What do you guys think? And if I DO try and it IS too thick, what will happen? Will it hurt or feel over-full or will I throw up?
