Protein Shakes

[Dawn36]

There are some great threads on here about the different proteins powders available . What I seem to have missed is when to start them, can I make a shake when I am on liquids or do I need to wait to a later stage? Many thanks for reading my question.

Hi, I am not post op yet (still a few more days to go) but I have the pre-op and post op diet sheets and it states to start the protein shakes when on the liquid stage. But maybe just wait until a post oper comes along to confirm

I started my protein shakes the day I came home from hospital. It is my personal & non-medical opinion that protein shakes should be used from day one to help with healing. I am also of the mind that they can help throughout your wls journey by giving you a good dose of protein.
