Hi everyone!
I'm scheduled to undergo corrective jaw surgery in about a month. During the 4-week recovery period, I'm to avoid ALL solid foods (only purees and liquids) and am to abstain from exercising.
I'm currently on a fairly ambitious weight/muscle gain program, and I don't want to regress. I'm tall and skinny but in the last 3 months have made some great gains with a 4,000 calorie/day and working out 5 times/week with a trainer.
Does anyone have some advice on how I can make it through this 4-week period as best as possible? Some of the initial advice I've been given from my trainer is:
- Ensure muscle groups stay active with minor stretches
- Protein shakes (obviously)
- Reduce calorie consumption by about 20% to avoid putting on excess fat
- L-Glutamine
- Kidney flush to combat what will probably be a lot of protein shakes
Looking for any other advice including:
- Other supplements
- Creative ways to mix up my month of pureed foods
- Muscle mass preservation techniques of any kind
Thank you!
