Guest guest Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 I'm taking 3 flintstone complete's and 4 caltrate chewables (until I get my stuff from vitalady). I'm getting about 60 grams of protein a day. I've ordered some powdered soy to add to my juice plus complete so that I can drink that as my protein drink. Is this right? I'm eating 3 small meals a day and occassionally I'll have 1/2 of a protein bar as a snack. The dr has me still on the soft foods /soups /etc until after I see him on 2/4. Perhaps then I'll be able to get more protein into my diet via food instead of drinks. Please let me know if you folks think I need to change anything! I'm pretty new at this Bev Re: Question about protein drinks Bev with you being distal it is very very very important for you to be on a good protein regimen for life and a shortage of either can cause the body to hang on for dear life and you also need lots of vitamins too and well we all have to drink water *YUCK* but drinking it Question about protein drinks > > > > > > > > > I just started trying to get my protein in (One week post op) and > so > > > far....YUCK!! > > > They all leave that funky aftertaste that just grosses me out.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2003 Report Share Posted January 29, 2003 just dont change your protein drinks. Think of food as a *snack at meal times* and your protein drinks as your only REAL source of protein. Does that make sense? We just dont really absorb much protein from food from what I gather. And I can tell........my hair started falling out more and more. My doctor told me........UP THOSE PROTEIN DRINKS! Food for thought!
