 I already had 2 protien shakes today. would it kill to have another? For some reason i dont feel the "restriction" is it only because im still on full liquids. will this change when i get to solids?

 Yes you can do another protein drink...you will feel restriction when you get to some pureed and mushies!

I didn't feel any restriction until I was on soft foods.  Are you tracking your fluids and protein?  I was told to get in 70+ g of protein, 64+ oz of fluids and 600-800 calories. 

I wouldn't worry about drinking more protein unless you're over the 70g or 600 calories - which I doubt you are at this stage.  So drink away!  Protein is very good for you.

another protein shake won't hurt and yes you don't feel restriction yet but you will later
