Hi Friends!

I start my preop diet on Friday for 10 days. I'm allowed 4 shakes a day, sf jello, sf Popsicle , broth, and 1/2 cup of vegetables a day.

My question is how much weight can one lies following this for 10 days? And can one include coffees? Also, I purchased bariatric fusion powder shakes- any reviews on this?

My pre-op diet is supposed to be pretty similar. I don't start in for another couple of weeks, but my nutritionist said I should lose 3-5 pounds per week on it.

I lost about 15 pounds in 2 weeks. That is the exact diet my doctor put me on too minus the vegetables. Wt. loss is different for everyone though. You may lose more or less. I have not used Bariatric fusion but as for flavor, I thought the unflavored one worked the best as I could add my own flavors. I was allowed to add frozen berries to my shakes.

My doc did not allow any tea or coffee. Good luck!
