Need some food suggestions - 5 days post-op
I am on the full post-op liquids phase. I am supposed to be adding the protein. My problem is that I have very fussy tastebuds. I am gagging on the protein shakes. I did use the choc Carn Instant Bkfst prior to surgery, but even that is tough now. (I do have unflavored protein powder to add to foods.) I've always hated milk, but I'm able to get through it. I can't stand the main suggestions that I was givien; yogart (I've tried over the years), protein shakes, cream of wheat. The artificial choc/van flavors are horrid for me. Are there other flavorings? What else can I add them to? My understanding is that the protein powders don't work well in any hot foods. Thanks for any suggestions - trying to hang in there.
