STRUGGLING WITH PROTEIN

Well, I am almost 4 weeks out, and I am struggling trying to get all of my fluid and protein in, cant stand the protein shakes anymore, the thought of them makes me gag, today just got 45 Gms in and I know I probably wont try to get in anymore tonite, I am still so full, still on pureed diet, and I cant find anything that I want to eat, eggs are too much, pureed meat is so yucky, baked ricotta is ok but burned out on it, I know this is all going to change in two more weeks I can eat food again!!!  Go to see the doc on Thurs, and then see the NUT  so maybe they will have some suggestions, but I am happy with my decision to have the surgery   only 9 lbs away from ONEDERLAND!!! Cant believe it

Janeekay, I had the same problem with the shakes. They were just too heavy on my pouch. I foloowed someones advice on here and now I am drinking isopure. Its almost like flavored water and I bought it at rite aid. Its much better than the shakes. I\'m glad that you are doing better.
