I just found out that I will be using Slim Time shakes for pre and post op diet.

Is anyone familiar with this brand? I see they have chocolate and vanilla shakes.

That is what my doctor prescribed. They also have peanut butter bars which are not bad at all. 4 per day.

which flavor did you use? I am hoping the vanilla tastes ok.

I used both. They are good.

Hi I used slim time and had no problem with them. I got the vanilla and then you can mix your own flavoring in.

Dr. Coburn is my doctor too. He's great. I have had zero problems.

My surgery went great. I healed in like 10 days. and I'm having great success as of five weeks post op. I have very little hunger, eat my small meals and I'm done. I don't think about food or crave food or feel like snacking at all. I have not had bread, Pasta, rice, for over 7 weeks and don't miss it. Once I have my Protein 3 to 4 ounces and some veggies, I'm feeling very satisfied and there is no room for the startch. and believe me, I used to live on carbs. But no more, I'm amazed every day that this is me, eating sensibly and not feeling like I'm starving or hungry or about to fall off the wagon and binge. You'll do great...Dr Coburn understands us and just follow all of his instrucions and you'll do fine. I go in for my first fill on Sept 14th. I probably won't need much as I already have a bit of restriction.

Good luck.

thanks for the replies!

I have decided to go with the vanilla and use my own flavourings - thanks ddrobins!

I am allergic to caffeine and so to many chocolate shakes just might do me in..lol

Time good luck and I look forward to following your progress as well!
