The shake is gross. FYI

I would definitely call your doctor about that. They want your glucose steady but it could effect the size of your liver for surgery.

Each surgeon is different and it would be best if you called their office to see what you need to do to lower the sugar/carb content of the shake. I to adjust as I am allergric to aspartime (nutri-sweet) so I had to get with the dietician for alternatives. Definitely call the doc. Good Luck, My sugery is the 19th too so let me know how you are doing!!!!
