Glucerna Shakes

[Ky.hen 5]

Does anyone know if these are on Clear liquids?

These are the diabetes ones.

They are 200 cals. for 8 oz.

10 grams soy protien

My daughter brought me a case of 24 strawberry flavored 8 oz bottles. She told me to drink these because they had everything I needed including vitimins. She works for a diabetic dr. and said they recommend these for thier patients who are not able to eat well.:001_huh:

Judy -

It is my understanding from Gaby that Clear Liquids are basically anything that you can see through - Water, broth, apple juice, herbal tea, etc.

It is also my understanding from Gaby that fulls include things made with milk, Soups, etc. I'll post the list that Gaby sent, it may help some:

Day 1 thru 5 ( clear liquids Only )

fruit juice ( apple, grape, cranberry )

Propel

Broth

Jello-O

Water

Tea

Protein Water by Kellogg?s

Water popsicles

Clear Protein drinks only ( example Isopure, powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury )

Thanks Vegas, I guess I knew that. Just not thinking clearly yet. The spinal has not helped. I keep having headaches. Everytime I bend my head forward or try to lean forward, cough or sneeze, terrible pain shoots through my head. I had my blood pressure and sugar checked yesterday and they were normal. I guess I just need to take it easy for a few days until it wears off. Thanks!

Try taking some liquid tylenol too. I had a massive headache when I got home - however, I finally figured out it was caused by my TMJ so went to see my chiro and he put my jaw back in alignment and it went away in about 20 minutes. Hope your's get better soon - headaches suck! If it doesn't get better, you should email Gaby about it so she can advise Dr. Aceves and see if he has any other advice.

That sounds like a bad enough headache that I would suggest you call Gaby at Dr Aceves' office. Hope you feel better.
