pre-op diet?

[jenmc2404 16]

For post op my nutritionist told me i must have 60 g of Protein a day. She said good Protein Drinks have 20g or over of protein and 200 calories or less per serving. She said not to worry about counting calories because she said noway am i going to be getting enough calories. She also said for the clear liquid phase to mix the gatorade g2 with a berry flavored Protein Powder she said it was delicious but i havent tried it yet.

@@Hnolan37 I'm so sorry I haven't been on in over 2 weeks! But I'm guessing you have already been in and out of your pre-op appointment. In general he makes sure you've lost the weight he is looking for you to lose pre-surgery, as well as any additional to show you are really trying. No nicotine test, but he will send you for your pre-op bloodwork to finish up within the month before surgery. I received my new date last month, so I am looking at a March 12th surgery, liquid diet starting next Thursday, the day after my final appt with him. He wanted me to lost 8 lbs this time around before seeing him next week, so I am really hoping I have hit that - having surgery postponed once is brutal enough! Hope it went well!
