    JAMB reacted to cjsheff13 in Pre-Op Diet! Protein Shakes Suggestions Please???   
    My Nutritionist told me that the rules for Protein drinks are:
    - Approximately 100 calories
    - Greater than 12 grams of Protein
    - Less than 3 grams of Fat
    - Between 8-13 grams of Carbohydrates (dependent upon protein & fat content)
    The brands she reccomended are Pure Protein, Muscle Milk Lite, and Medifast.
    My pre-operative diet is for 7 days, and they said between days 1-6 I can also consume:
    - Carnation Instant Breakfast with skim or 1% milk,
    - Jello-O pudding sugar free, fat free,
    - Yoguart - non fat and no sugar added (i.e. Dannon Light, Stoneyfield, Columbo Light, Axelrod, Turkey Hill frozen, Fage, or Chobani Greek Yoguart)
    - Soups low-fat (3 or less grams per serving)
    On the 7th day:
    -broth
    -Jello
    - Ice
    -Clear fruit juice (apple/White grape)
    -Tea

    Pre-operatively, my nutritionist says that I should have 1200 calories per day, 175 grams of carbohydrate per day, 85 grams of protein per day, and 12 grams of fat per day.
    My operation is scheduled for March 10th, and I'm so nervous. I'm actually not sure if I want to go through with it still.
