Help please
I have had the best luck with Syntrax Nectar chocolate and strawberry protein powders and IDS MultiPro vanilla-cinnamon. If you're a coffee or hot tea drinker, you can add one of those to a chocolate or vanilla-cinnamon shake. You could mix the shake with about 4 ounces of water or Lactaid milk, {shake}, then pour the protein into a large mug and top off with hot decaf coffee or chai tea.

For some people your doc's recommendations might work (personally I disagree with him), but for you, something isn't working.
A lot of this early out is trial and error, and you've already learned that these choices aren't working so well for you. I would go with water - try different temps, tea (warm), and maybe try something like Progresso Soup, but don't eat all the stuff in there, just sip the broth. I found that canned chicken broth didn't go well and didn't taste right, even the brand that I liked pre-op, but Progresso chicken soups went much better. The clear, not milk based soups, of course.
Just make sure you stay hydrated and try different very mild things. It will get better.
