Hi everyone, My surgery was on Wednesday, doctor said the surgery went well with no problems. I was discharged on Friday and have been home trying to relax. I have been trying to get my water intake but find it hard because i dont want to drink too much and I seem to be full after a few sips. I am also trying to take in my protein but once again i am taking in very little. I must say the best part about my surgery is that i didnt do it alone. I was in the hospital with another one of my doctors patients we had the surgery the same day and were in the same room. Which made it a little more comforting because I had someone share with what each of us were feeling. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers!!

Lashon, Try drinking the Profect protein shots. There are 25grams of protein in one test tube shot. Congrats on your surgery and I wish you much success!

Hi Michelle, You can find these at protica.com or you can try vitamin shop or GNC. There are a bunch of flavors...you can get a case of one flavor or a case of mixed flavors. Which ever you prefer. There are 3oz test tube shots ....the taste is ok...I prefer the blueberry. But for 25 grams of protein in 3 oz...its great! There are a little pricey about $65 for a case so i would recommend buying one tube at a time to see which flavors you like so that your not stuck with a case of tubes that you don't like. Hope that this info is helpful to you! Also, my nutritionist gave me a sample of Syntrax Nectar...which is whey protein isolate...Twisted cherry flavor that is really good. I only had a sample which is 1/2 a serving sample that you mix with water about 6 oz. the 1/2 serving packet has 12grams of portein so that might be another option for you. Hopefully these are two other sources of protein for you.
