Thank you so much for posting these recipes but at what stage can I have these? I'm having surgery on 12-29-14, and before when I would do protein shake I always added fruit.

Those sound good but I can bet my dr would say no. He got on me today about eating banana's. Said they are full of fat. And we all know juices are full of sugar. Guess I'll learn about liquids right before surgery I hope. I've bought only one brand of protein powder from walmart and it's nasty. Wondering how many I'll have to try to find a good one? They get pretty expensive.
