Help I am 5 days out and not sure how to get my protien in. I have Premier Protien shakes 30g per shake. That's good but tomorrow I can start on Pureed foods. If anyone has suggestions on Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner maybe I can try to follow. The shakes are good in between but they said I need to try real food too. Plus I have only had 2 shakes a day for the last 2 days and I think thats why I have such a bad headache. I am getting plenty of water in so I know I'm not dehydrated. I did try plain greek yogurt with some of my chocolate protien powder mixed in for breakfast today. (YUK) It was awful and I barely got it down. Thanks anyone for your help

 I had a hard time too in the first weeks.  I bought some premade shakes and I added water to them, then they were drinkable.  I also madegrapenut custard. 1 cup milk, 1egg, 2-3 packs splenda, dash of vanilla,add to 2 T grapenuts, cook in microwave for 7-9 mins on medium.  good:)

Didn't your doctor give you a plan to follow? If not you should ask for one. Here is a link to the plan my surgeon has patients follow... Stick to the plan and definitely ask your surgeon for one

I really like using the Davinci sugar free syrups to help things taste better. I usually put that in my plain greek yogurt and it tastes really good. I like greek yogurt anyway but not plain. I also continued to drink my protein shakes to make sure I got enough in. My doctor said that if I can't fit all my food in for the day than to make sure I drink another shake. Talk to your doctor and find out.
