Hey Fellow aussies!!

My surgery date is 26/03/2013 - so I started my pre-op diet today - my dietician was really relaxed about my diet - I because I'm healthy (no pressure or sugar etc. issues) and I'm smaller...

she actually was NOT going to put me on a pre-op diet at all - until I quickly mentioned my liver is slightly enlarged... when I brought up shakes, I mentioned I had some body BSc women's shakes in my pantry and she just shrugged and said any shake is fine... but some of these Protein shakes do have a considerable amount of carbs in them -

I've tried emailing and calling her sending her pics of the nutritional info of the shakes I'm taking, but no response yet...

so I'm turning to you guys on this forum... I bought some celebrity slim as well, coz its on special at woolies at the moment... please tell me if these two: BSc Body women shakes (swisse choc) and the celebrity slim range are ok for pre-op to reduce the liver size...????

THANK YOU SO MUCH...and OMG celebrity slim strawberry is a GOD-SEND.

My surgeon recommended optifast, but celebrity slim was "ok". Never heard of the other one. Where are you having your surgery?

Good luck.

Hey puppyphat...

I'm having it done at the Chermside Holyspirit Hospital and the surgeon is George Hopkins... my nutritionist is Margie brooke.

What about you??

I'm not sure if I've over done my portions tonight, a few long green Beans and a rectangle portion of salmon... I had about a 1/3 cup of chicken at lunch too (amongst shakes..)... and seriously considering another shake before bed...Sh** I'm not good at this....TOTALLY ADDICTED TO food...
