Already real sick of protien shakes

I have several at home that I've been switching up.  It doesn't matter the flavor I'm sick of them!  I can't wait to move on to the next stage purees so I will not have to have as many of them. 

I am on purees and still have to drink 3 shakes a day. I'm running out of the chicken soup which is my favorite but I just cant bring myself to drink more than 1 chocolate flavored a day. I wish I could drink the premier protein chocolate post op, then this wouldnt be an issue! I really liked those!

Good luck to you!

Why can't you drink Premier drinks?

Hi Jengel- I just noticed you had surgery with the same Dr, cool! My nutrition information says only drink whey protein isolate and Premier Protein drinks are whey protein concentrate. I am going to ask again at my 4 week post op appointment (the difference and why not) because I really liked the Premier Protein, they taste good, they are cheap and ready to drink so they are convenient! 

I am so with you. I'm totally sick of them. I'm drinking Oh Yeah chocolate shakes. My NUT said I could had some pureed fruit to them to change the flavor a little bit. So last week I started adding strawberries. Well that worked for a little bit. I think I need to change brands. I'm really sick of the shakes too. Ok complaining over. LOL

You are allowed strawberries? Do you strain out the seeds?

Yeah I know that once I start the pureed stage I can add a little fruit like peaches or bananas.  I'm not there yet.  Monday is the day can't wait.   However like the other poster posted no berries (or seeds and nuts) yet cause of the seeds.  I think my nutt said no berries or not til 6 weeks out.  Not to scare you but the reason is because the seeds can get stuck in the staple line while you are still healing.  I know you are 1 week a head of me.  Maybe check with your nutt.  I already accident had a couple of seeds.  I had drinkable yogurt on the full liquid diet.  I think it's called Kefir.  I thought the seeds were pureed so well there weren't any.  I think I was wrong cause I saw a couple and I was trying to fish them out.  So no more of that yogurt back to vanilla and plain for now.  I have a feeling I ate a few.  The shakes might get easier once we are on solids cause than we will only have to have 1 a day not too are three.  I have a mild allergy to dairy/whey.  Not really bad but if I have to much my sinuses get messed up so I've been alternating with the egg protien.  Let me tell you the whey is a whole lot better tasting than the egg.  The egg is really bad.  Jay Robb's egg (vanilla) was the best I could find even that one is not that great after awhile.

TRY THE ATKINS ADVANTAGE CAFE CARAMEL SHAKES THAT ARE PRE-MADE.  THEY SELL THEM IN THE PHARMACY AREA AT WALMART.  I LOVE THEM, JUST LIKE ICED COFFEE!

I am having problems also.  I bought some unflavored unjury and am adding a scoop to my soups.  This morning I added it to my watered down oatmeal.  I really can't taste it in this things so it adds the protein.  I will try it in my yogurt today also.

I can't get my surgery date to show on my posts but my surgery was 12/19.
