One month post op ???
Thanks to all who prayed for me and wished me well on surgery. There have been a few bumps in the road but, I am finally starting to feel human again. I am requesting ideas for transition from liquid to soft foods. Honestly don't feel like eating much at all but, know I need to eat. Any favorite protein shake ideas? Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks so much.
Loucinda, finally!
I've been worried about you. I figured you'd email me and let me know how the surgery went. Did the Pink robe work for you? I'm sorry to hear you've had it rough.
A protein shake I made all the time during this period was this:
1 scoop GNC Isopure Creamy Vanilla protein mix (0 carbs)
1 cup plain fat free yogurt
1/4 frozen blueberries
1/3 frozen banana
1 Tablespoon frozen orange juice concentrate
2 Tablespoons Splenda
Blend together. If your fruit is not frozen, add a couple of ice cubes to the blender. This is very tasty and loaded with superfoods nutrition. Blueberries, yogurt and the oj are all superfoods.
I'd buy bananas, cut them in 3 chunks, individually wrap each chunk and throw in the freezer. At that time I could not eat a whole banana.
Stay in touch!
