Question:
Post Op Questions About Water Intake and "Slushies"
I love to gulp down my water and I can't I have to sip or it hurts and comes back up. When will I be able to drink regularly again without the tiny sips. Next I need some ideas for smoothies or slushies I have been dying for a slushie but can't seem to figure out how to make them? — jnmcneil (posted on July 12, 2003)

Do you have any 7-11's near you? I know the ones around me sell slurpees
that are crystal light...I have seen 3 or 4 flavors...Yum!! Good Luck!

I throw some SF koolaid, ice, and water ( you have to play with the amounts
to get the consistency you like ) in my blender and blend away. They are
great. When I'm being naughty, I make screwdriver ones with OJ and a titch
of vodka (and make the kids plain OJ ones, they like them).

I didn't say to just throw the powder in, with a small amt of water, and
the ice--I think the regular koolaid would be too weak.

I love slushies and smoothies, too. My standard mix is 1-2 scoops of
protein powder (depending on the amount of protein per scoop), 4 oz. water,
4 ice cubes, and frozen fruit (2 larg strawberries or 1/2 banana, etc.).
This usually makes a pretty thick shake if you don't over-blend it. Just
blend it until the ice is chipped up and no longer. For a collection of
other specific protein recepies, check out my profile. I'm pre-op, so I
can't help you with the water gulping question Sorry.
