My hubby will be having the surgery soon and I want to try and get all the info I can on feeding him after.

I have heard about sugar and milk in your diet after surgery. Right now he is eating most anything he wants and I also still make him shakes for xtra calories and vit. The shakes are carnation instant breakfast mixed with milk, whey protein, and ice cream. I am wondering if he will be able to tolerate this after surgery? Carnation has a lot of sugar and the milk and ice cream too.

Just wondering if any of you were still able to eat something like this after.

Thanks
Nancy
