I am on my Liquid Protein Diet. My REVISION OP is February 3.

My diet is diet yogurts and puddings; 1% milk, protein powders (I chose TSL Whey Protein and bought 3 flavors) and I asked from friends their leftover soup broth from Shabbat (the Jewish Sabbath). I don't care for jello. Unfortunately, as I began yesterday, the food cravings are still strong. I did cheat. Yesterday I ate a "children's" ice cream - it is advertised as the equivelant as a glass of milk. And today I ate a matza ball in the soup. I mourn the loss of food. Food is my friend - food is my enemy. Ifind the protein powders are so sweet. I like chocolate - a lot, but maybe I'm doing things wrong?

I found the protein powders so sweet and really some had awful taste and finally settled on Isopute chocolate. It has been 2 years and 5 mos since my surgery and now I drink the Atkins shakes and find them very good and not as sweet as the slim fast products. Atlkins amd Slim Fast do not have enough protein for you until your are really about 8-9 months post op. Judy E
