I was using Premier Protein but my nut says I should only have Protein isolate. The protein isolate shakes are disgusting and making this diet even harder

Okay I have a question since we are talking cardiologist. I had my pre op interview or whatever with the hospital before surgery to discuss health history and such. Everything was fine until the end when she said I had to take my atenolol 25mg morning of surgery and 2 days post op. I said "excuse me? My what?" Now a little history I have a perfect EKG, perfect ECHO, and BP runs 120/70 or 110/70. So why would I take heart medication?? Is this normal? No one from cardiologist even spoke a word of it. Talk about raise in anxiety and fear. I have a call into the cardiologist so he can explain things to me but 19 days before surgery I didn't need this!!

I wish I had some insight to offer, but that just sounds bizarre to me. I'd almost bet it was just a mis-key. Someone should have typed code 43 and instead typed code 433 which is something completely unrelated. That type of thing.

Premier Protein are good and so are the GNC lean shakes.< /p>

I'll have to give those a try. My husband just bought some Muscle Milk light to try, the premixed chocolate. He likes it so I tried it. Disgusting!

Thanks. I am waiting for a call from cardiologist tomorrow and some very good answers. The pre op nurse said if I didn't get a script that the anesthesiologist would take care of giving it to me...YIKES!!! I waspassed nervous and on to excited about my surgery, but now I am so anxious and scared again.

I am Sept. 8, just 4 days away! I am doing great with the preop diet, except for a daily minor headache. I am on day 4 of diet and it's not too bad. The hardest part is cooking good dinners for the family and I don't eat them. I am doing 3-4 shakes a day with a veggie and Protein. Think I've lost 8 lbs. already! Hang in there, you and me both!!!!!

The hubs tried the powdered muscle milk 100 cal tonight, mixing it with skim milk instead of Water. I took a sip and while it's not my favorite thing in the world, it's about 1,000 times better than the ready-to-drink.

My day is Sept 11. It is getting close. I am excited and scared at the same time. All things are possible through Christ that strengths me.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
