Yes Premier Protein is a brand. It was recommended by my Dr. It has 30 grams of Protein, 160 calories and 1 or 2gm sugar. It fills you up but is only 11 1/2 oz., and you don't have to mix it!!! The chocolate and Carmel are my favorites, but strawberry and banana creme are pretty good. I haven't seen a Cookies and creme flavor but I would try it it there was. I just bought vanilla for a variety. I have never tried it.
I've made it through 6 days now with no cheating and haven't been hungry. The monotony is the hard part. As of last night I have lost about 8 lbs in 5 days! I'm good with that!! I'm on the down hill slope now!!

We have to do a liquid diet for 2 weeks before. Roughly 800-900 calories. 3 Premier Protein shakes, 1 for each meal. 160cal, 2 gm sugar, 5 gm carbs, 3 gm fat, 30 gm Protein each shake. In between they say 3/4 cup greek yogurt, but I don't really care for it, so I will try, but may switch to regular yogurt. I bought sugar free Jello in case I want to "chew" the jello!!, and G2 for a treat. May do a tropical smoothie as a treat the green one with the lowest carb count and splenda.

What are you guys doing???

No stress.. so many doctors do it different ways. Some people even get to eat a meal a day. I'm on day 3 of liquid for 13 days...I wanted to start on a weekend!!

I guess we are in this thing together. Are you all set for your surgery? I think I have finished jumping through all the insurance hoops.

Just got approved for surgery 06/22/2917. [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4] [emoji4]

Hey! My paper said liquid diet 5 days before surgery. I started today and my surgery is the 19th. Hopefully, I didn't miss them saying two weeks. I'm nervous now

Hello! I just joined because I found out yesterday that my surgery is June 27th. I am getting ready to start my pre-surgery diet. I was fine with everything till I got the call yesterday and now I'm pretty terrified. Excited but scared for the healing.

My center had two options - one for those with a BMI over 50 and one for BMI between 40-50. I'm on day 6 of the second option right now, which is 2 Protein Shakes + 2 meals (60% proteins/40% non-starchy veggies) and you can throw in sugar-free popsicles, sugar-free Jello and broth as well. I've found that after doing a shake for breakfast and lunch, and getting in at least 100 oz. of Water for the day that I am only doing one meal. My calorie count has been between 575-1000 each day, and I'm down 13.4 pounds and feeling pretty dang good.

LOL!! I had never been to one either! She asked me binge eating and anorexia/bulemia. I asked her what she was trying to figure out and basically she said she tries to make sure I don't have an eating disorder or am just sprayed roach crazy and couldn't handle the surgery

I am a very open person and everyone can tell I need to lose weight (duh!) so I have been very up front about it and people are very supportive and wish the best for me. I need all the help I can with this so my boss knows I'm going through this. I'm saving up my time so I can take the time needed, plus FMLA covers you too!! Be open, people do care and those who don't just suck anyway so who cares?!!
