When to start protein shakes, shots or slams

When did you start protein shakes, shots or slams after surgery? 

at 1 month I had my first B12 shot I start each day with a protien shake since the very first day out of the Hospital....not that I could drink it all at one time....I sipped till I was sick of it put it in fridge and sip more later....actually I drank it out of the med cups from the hospital for the first month.so I wouldnt over do it. how are you doing??? oh BTW I am loosing my hair anyway even with my protien drink a day....now I also try to get in one protien bar over the day as well.... nutti

I am doing pretty well; I believe I’ve been one of the lucky ones.  I get tired easily and I’m having trouble getting in all the fluids a day.  Thanks for the information on when you started the protein; I wanted to try to prevent the hair loss too.  Keep up the great work; you are doing wonderful on your weight loss!

 

I started them about 3 - 4 weeks post-op (if memory serves), but I could/SHOULD have started them sooner. I think the best answer here is: "AS SOON AS YOU CAN". 

Thanks Wendy!  I started the protein last week after Nutti said she started them day one.   Wow…you are over ½ way to your goal; that is wonderful for just being 3 months post-op.  Keep up the great work!

 

I started mine about week or two after I got home.  When I could drink more than a medicine cup at a time. 

Thanks for your reply.  Hope you get to feeling better!
