Protein Question
I have my first appointment the my doctor on Monday so I'm very early in this process. However, I've already starting trying different protein powders as I am an EXTREMELY PICKY eater/drinker. I simply do not like sugar free things because I've yet to find a sugar substitute that I can tolerate.
Anyway, my question for y'all is during your preop diet and liquid portion of your postop diet, did you have to drink the protein powder with milk/water or could you actually make a smoothie/shake using fruit. I just cannot see getting it down without being able to "hide" it.
Thanks!

For my pre op my Nut said to use water. Post sleeve, she suggested milk to help with the protein. I don't like it with milk for some reason, I suppose because I started out with the water base and got used to that. Fruit pre op in the shake wasn't really suggested, but then again I never asked. Gook luck on the pre op diet!
