My surgery was done on Feb 3rd and I was dischaged yesterday from the hospital.  My husband has been out shopping for me yesterday and today making sure I have everything I need on for the new life I've been given. 

I want to make sure I'm getting enough of the protein that I need, he found the carnation instant breakfast.  I Mix mine with 8 oz of skim milk and have that 3x a day.  Would it be better if I get the FF powedered milk to add as well? 

Between my protein shakes I drink chicken broth, crystal ligh****er, popsicles (sugar free)

Any tips would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Sounds like you are doing great.  I used to mix powdered milk with my shakes.  I bought a container of whey protein from Vitamin Cottage.  Sometimes, I add that to my shakes.
 
              
Weight loss surgery has saved my life and I would recommend it to anyone who has the strength to dedicate themselves to the challenging WLS lifestyle.  This is not the "easy way out."  It's the hardest way out.  "Easy" would have been to do nothing.
