Muscle Milk and clear liquid diet

I am five days out from surgery and am on a clear liquid diet until Wednesday. I am supposed to be having protein shakes, sf popsicles, broth, etc. I am sick of my protein shakes. Today, I bought Muscle Milk Light. It is lactose free. It is not, however, a clear liquid. Then again, neither are my Nectar shakes when I mix them with water. WWYD (What Would You Do)?

Isn't Muscle Milk a protein shake?  I thought it was.  If you're allowed protein shakes, then I would think you are good.  My Dr didn't allow protein shakes until full liquids, but for us that was day 3. 

When in doubt, ask your doc. MY guy's diet stage ok'd clear Isopure for clear liquids and ALL protein shakes for full liquids.

Let me know how you like MM Light. I really disliked them.

Clear = you can see through it. Pretty cut and dry :)

I don't know if you should drink it right now or not... but I really enjoy muscle milk lite... Just wanted to put in my 2 cents :)

love muscle milk.

i was on protien shakes next day., 3 a day my choice of glucerna or boost. glucerna by far was the best. the Nectar crap I gagged everytime I tried to drink it. if i even smell it i am gaggin. bleh.

It's strange that your diet calls for clear liquids but you can have protein shakes.  That's a contradiction.  When in doubt ask your Nut.

Thanks! I did try a bit of it and it turned into a non-issue because I really didn't care much for the Muscle Milk. So it's back to Nectar I go.
