What to buy for my first week?

Hi...I am just getting prepared for next week after the surgery and I already have disigner whey protien powder...a huge keg of it! I heard someone mention somewhere that there is a high protien lowcarb yogurt out there. Does anyone know what this product is called? Also, a friend told me the Atkins premade drinks are good. Any suggestions are really welcome. Someone told me to blend soups but I want to know mostly about the high protien. Or where would I find some good drink mix recipes? Besides the soy milk, what would I mix the protien powder with? Can you blend in strawberries, etc? Help!!! Any other tips for the first week???

Hello Heather, I stuck with the Advantage Protein drink, mixed it with skim milk for a bit extra protein. I also use Danon Light n Lively yogurt, about 9 grms of protein, and a lowfat cottage cheese. The first couple of weeks it was just the protein drink, milk, and water. Then I was put onto soft foods & that is when I added the yorgurt and cottage cheese. There are recipes in the book that is given to people at EMMC who are looking into surgery & have attended the first meeting. You can also ask the dietician for what you can have. They base your needs on the various blood tests, so make sure you discuss foods with the dietician, you may require different things than others do. Contratulations on your upcoming surgery! Cindy K.
