    Default Protein question

    I have my surgery in the 10th. I have been trying different things with the protein powder. Today I mixed 4 frozen strawberries, 1/2 banana and a teaspoon cocoa in milk with the powder. It was fantastic!!!!! Question, will the fruit make me sick if I do this right after surgery? Do I have to mix the protein in liquid only the first days after surgery? Thanks for your help everybody.

    everyone's plan is different on what they allow, but at a bare minimum...no fruit for a few days at least.


    Pounds LOST since surgery 111

    Height 5'3" Small frame
    Starting BMI day of surgery : 45.7 MORBIDLY OBESE CLASS 3

    my first goal is to get to 141pounds, that will put me in the NORMAL range bmi. My second goal is 120, which is thin and healthy.

    That is a good question for your nutritionist but I would say to wait a week to add the fruit, and just a little. Fruit is high in natural surgers and we want to keep the carbs low for maximum weight loss.



    Highest weight 440 lbs. lowest weight 9.5 lbs at birth
    Date of surgery weight 340
    12 week checkup 301 BMI <50 yeah!
    Weight on birthday 3/24/48 Goal 285 would be nice.
