Default How soon can you start protein shakes?

I had WLS on 8/22, is it too early? I have been tolerating 8oz of milk 3 times a day, and some yogurt. I am not fond of milk so do you think it is too early to add a protein shake for some flavor?

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment."
