@ccassaday  So glad to hear you're on the mend.  I could come and give you tutoring on how to gain and keep weight on.  I am an expert.  Can you talk?  Order your shakes with "extra chocolate".  So much better tasting.

Good to hear the first surgery went well.  I drink chocolate flavor Boost.  It tastes very good and will provide protein and the nutrients you need for a good recovery.

@ccassaday  I'm happy to hear number one is done.  A friend of ours had jaw surgery years ago.  She went the milk shake route, until the phlem started, that really scared her.  I would make sure to drink plenty of water in-between to keep the 'line' clear.  I too think protein shakes would be good.

 

Maybe check with a health food store about powders to embellish the protein, calorie and taste of your beverage.

 

I hope you will be just fine on the pain end of this.

 

Just sit back and sip, put your feet up and look at building a house, furnishing a house, etc. on the internet.  How much fun that will be.

 

God bless friend.
