Protein powder - desperately need your help

Hi all, I am 8 days post surgery and am having a heck of time with protein! Would someone please help me! #1 can you have Atkins shakes on the pureed stage? #2 I've decided I need to find an unflavored or natural protein powder to mix in with my food and drink. Does anyone know of a good one? The one I have is just nasty! #3 how in the world do you puree eggs? Thanks so much! Cora Beth

Cora I wasnt aloud to eat eats until 2 weeks out. And My doctor said to scramble them running with cheese. But I could never really eat eaggs or chicken.I did do adkins shakes. I did do SF Hot choclate with protein powder in it. I did the gnc 40 grms protein isopure. I bought my protein powder at gnc. no flavor whey. You can Put that in the hot choclate or other drinks.and did the isopure. That gave my 60 grms a day. Plus what I got natural. Best wishes. Remember the first month is hard, Once your on solids it gets much better Take Care Barb

Hi Cora, Have you tried CoCo wheats. This helped me alot. It is warm,tasty and you can add some powdered milk in for more protein. Something else, feel free to doctor your shakes up. Add 1/4 banana, a squirt of s/f chocolet,a drop of mint. Anything to help make it taste better to yo u. Good Luck, RIchard

Cora any whey protein powder is unflavored and can be mixed with food or drinks hot or cold and you can get it at gnc

Cora, I'm on liquids, working up to pureed. My nutritionist was THRILLED that I had Atkins drinks waiting for me. I use others including slim fast low carb also. As for eggs...they aren't on my plan until I start 'transition foods' at 4 weeks. Three more weeks til I can have that scrambled egg!! Melissa

I don't know what kind of protein powder you are using, but I had the best luck with Unjury. I bought it online @ Unjury.com I didn't care for the chocolate, but the vanilla was pretty good. I used mine in jello for several months. I also used it with 1% milk when I could tolerate milk again. Taste just like a vanilla shake. Cathy

You do not list surgery you've had. I had a LapBand in Feb. 2006. I started Atkins shake 2-nd week. Pureed eggs = scrambled eggs, no fried eggs. I use On 100% Any Whey protein powder (unflavored) from GNC. I use it with CIB+skim milk. Rita

I did ATKINS right after surgery and still do them and I'm almost 4 yrs out. Also the WHEY is very good to
