Very Low Calorie Pre Op Diet

I'm just realizing how few calories my MD's diet consists of- between 400-500 calories a day! I've had to buy some calorie free drinks with potassium to help with the leg cramps. Using MFP daily now.

    "skinny water" has 100mg potassium in a 16oz bottle (skinnywater.com is on the side-so you can find it-I got mine at Target), and G2 has some too-45mg in the 12oz bottle.
