Pre-op diet ideas?
Each surgeon is different. Did your surgeon's office provide you pre-op diet he or she wanted to to follow. Pre-op diets vary quite a bit surgeon to surgeon. I have 1 week liquid diet which includes 4 shakes a day first one within 1 hour of awakening. Sf popsicles, sf pudding, broth, diet none carbonated juice or flavored water is allowed. Stick to what your surgeons protocol. When's your surgery?

Pre op Liquid Diet Shakes
@CarmenVSG2017 I haven't seen the isopure clear that has 40grams of protein in a powder form. I do know time to time GNC has a discount on a case of 12. Unjury and Nectar has sample packets for sale. Idk if anyone tried chike but I loved their banana protein powder. It was very good shaken with soy milk. Wasn't gritty and tasted amazing.

Pre op Liquid Diet Shakes
Ok so my NUT explained the premier is a protein supplement and not a meal replacement which is why it's listed on the list after surgery.

@O-Town Body Rock premier is an excellent high protein low carb and low sugar protein drink. Are you drinking other no calorie no carb drinks in addition to the premier shakes?

I've used isoprure bottles that has 40 grams of protein when I had my sleeve. By itself it taste awful I mean awful. I added a packet of crystal light and made sure it was ice cold and it was decent. I can say what I loved before surgery the first time around I hated after surgery. Be open to trying different ones and don't buy too much of anything before surgery as you will be surprised how different your taste buds are after surgery. I read how that happened to folks but didn't think it would happen to me and low and behold it was 1000% true lol.

Anyone having surgery the 25th of April?
@CarmenVSG2017 hi Carmen. Best of luck to you. I'm supposed to be the 1pm case. My surgeon said stand by the day before as the time may move up. I'm not happy with an afternoon time at all. I want my surgeon to be nice and fresh after having his coffee when he opens me up but oh well.
