I have time i eat so i started having the protien shake in the morning betweet 730 and 8 then 130 lunch and about 5 to 6 is dinner.... have you added anything to your protien shake????
I eat 6 small meals and sip allday. I went and bought a lot of sugarfree flavors from smart and final I add them to my shakes and yogurt and cottage cheese. They taste pretty good too. So your able to drink a whole protien shake at a time? I've also made tomato soup last nite add a little cheese and pwd milk for extra protein. This morning I made a soft scrambled egg I didn't have any problems. So how are you feeling?I have time i eat so i started having the protien shake in the morning betweet 730 and 8 then 130 lunch and about 5 to 6 is dinner.... have you added anything to your protien shake????

Your able to eat tomato soup they said i cant have acidy food how did you feel after... im doing good i went for a 20 min walk this morning.... i asked my diatician if i couldnt have milk she said no it would cause dumping syndrome.... i wanna try the tomato soup i love it... what sugar free stuff did you buy?
My dietician said any creamy soups just strain it so no solids. Also milk can do fat free she sat to add dry pwd milk to increase the protein and i can make puddings and eat yougart. I haven't had any dumping syndrome. But I'm only eating a quarter to half a cup at a time.Your able to eat tomato soup they said i cant have acidy food how did you feel after... im doing good i went for a 20 min walk this morning.... i asked my diatician if i couldnt have milk she said no it would cause dumping syndrome.... i wanna try the tomato soup i love it... what sugar free stuff did you buy?
The tomato soup was good for a change I didn't have any problems. The syrup I got is sugar free torani (brand) it's like the flavors you add to coffee or snow cones. My favorite is the black cherry added to the chocolate protien shake. I had my surgery at Stanford. where did you have yours? My Dr is one of the Dr's that perfected the laparoscopic surgery I feel like I was really lucky to get him.
