Today was my first day of my protein shakes, it was hard, but I did it, I started with muscle milk, 20g of protein and 3g of sugar, what do you guys think, should I stay with it or change? I also had a jello sugar free of course.

Thanks ordering now! Lol I needs something that as a taste to it.

Do they make unjury chips?! lol jkjk

My surgery is 9/4, I am on day 5 of liquids. 9 more days to go! Good luck!

I'm 9/3 and already getting tired of water! I was told to drink lots of water and the thought makes me sick! Yuck! Any suggestions? I need buddies too! I pray everyday and thank God every day I don't fall into temptation!

Hey there! I'm 9/5 if you'd like another buddy. I start my preop Sunday.

I am 9/5 as well. Good luck

My dr said those Mios water flavoring are okay to add to water to make more palatable. They actually make me more thirsty!

9/4 and I hate the liquid diet tomorrow starts protein shakes and clear liquids so I will be a whine bag till Tuesday. Ready to have this surgery and not feel starving all the time. One thing for sure if I can make it through this without the surgery these last 7 days I can do it with the surgery. Starting to feel optimism the first time in a long time.

I'm 9/3 and feel the same way! I have been able to handle the Protein Shakes and working out but by the end of the day I'm exhausted! Growing anxious and nervous but ready for the change!

You guys are all gonna do great! I just wanna say that I'm 2 weeks 3 days post op. I'm doing puree I have 2 more days til soft food and I swear it hasn't been that bad. Since surgery I have not been hungry. I got bored with liquids but I was never hungry. Also, I have had a very positive experience, no nausea, i've tolerated everything i've tried, no unbearable pain only sore the first week and now I have one spot that is tender. I went back to work in a pediatric doctors office 10 days after surgery. The hardest part was is getting all my water in. I wish you guys the best! Stay postive and keep us posted!

So you only have to do 10days on liquid?

Yep, my pre-op diet is only 10 days. I'm very lucky.

Mine is 7 full liquid compiled today and 7 clear liquid with 12 oz protein shake... Gonna die next week.

So far, I'm enjoying organic chicken broth and I just season it up. I tried the veggie broth and ick! I'll have to get some beef broth to try

I'm Sept. 7 as well! I also started my liquid diet Friday. I am allowed veggies, and a salad with protein for one meal. The first couple of days were difficult. I was off work so I took 2 Tylenol PM's and slept through the worst of it. But the way I look at it is that we are on this liquid diet because our surgeries are finally imminent!! I am SO HAPPY to be to the point of being on the liquid pre-op diet. I have lost 7 lbs. so far. We are on our way!

Had anybody have headaches from the pre-op diet? And what is the amount of protein U should have? I need to have low protein because of a medical condition.
