Did anyone use 1% or skim milk to mix Protein Shakes during pre-op diet?

pre-op for me was Clear Liquids so no milk products at all. Only clear liquids. I was only able to use Water and it wasn't bad at all.

oh, then you probably could use a 1% milk. Well I did pretty good and so far lost 8 #'s and will be sleeved tomorrow. I have to be at the hospital at 6am. When is your date?

I used skim milk as well, and am also sleeved tomorrow (have to be at the hospital at 9am). And I have lost about 8 pounds too (tjloser - we're like sleeve twins, haha!)

lizzybeth, sleeve twin, keep me posted and I'll do the same. Hope for a speedy recovery. See you on the other side of this journey or as they say on the loser's bench.

Ok everyone.... I started out drinking the Atkins shakes which to me are kind of sweet. I mix the powder with skim milk this morning & it was good. Actually better. I also get to eat lean Protein that I do once a day.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
