I started the pre op diet Wednesday - 2 meal replacements and 1 healthy frozen dinner. This morning, my stomach is a mess. Anyone else having problems?

I have actually been doing 5 meal replacement shakes a day since last Thursday and nothing else allowed except water. The first couple of days I had cramping and diarrhea but it finally subsided. I think that it is the shock of the high protein and vitatmins to your body.

You should try probiotics. They helped me with digestion of high amounts of protien.

Are we allowed to take probiotics right now? Are intake is so limited.

Different weight loss programs have different rules, the best person to ask would be your nutritionist. I doubt that they would have any problem with it , but its better to get an answer from them.
