Prep diet

Hi all. I am going to be starting my preoperative diet soon. What is the best or better protein shakes and other items should I be getting in prep for this? I have heard isopure is very good. What flavors? Do I get the low carb or no carb? Much appreciated for all the info. Chris

I tried Grape flavored Isopure and it tasted okay. The problem is that one 12 oz bottle of it costs close to $4.50 and that is too pricey for me. I also am using Premier Protein from Sam's Club. For the pre op diet though, I had 4 Adkins shakes a day.

HELLO,

I AM ON THE PRE OP DIET AND THE BEST ONE I HAVE TRIED IS PREMIERE Protein ITS BEST TO BUY IT AT SAM'S WHOLESALE YOU GET 18 FOR 18 DOLLARS AND SOME CHANGE SO IT COMES OUT TO A TINY BIT OVER A BUCK YOU CAN'T GO WRONG PLUS IT TASTE THE BEST BY FAR.FIND OUT FROM YOUR NUTRITIONIST OR DOC IF YOU CAN ADD sugar free FLAVORS AND DECAF coffee OR SUGAR FREE FAT FREE pudding IF SO THEN YOU CAN JUST POP THEM IN THE BLENDER AND MAKE ALL KINDS OF smoothies SO YOU DON'T GET TOO TIRED OF JUST DRINKING PROTEIN ALSO IF YOU CAN HAVE POPSICLES NESTLE MAKES SOME AWESOME SUGAR FREE FRUIT POPSICLES.. AND DRINK ALOT OF WATER/CRYSTAL LIGHT TO FLUSH YOUR BODY CLEAN.. GOOD LUCK!!

SweetGAPeach, Brightlife, and Starting New thank you all for the advice. It seems like premier protein will be the best choice. Are these bottles or are they powder mix? If they have both maybe I'll try them. Thanks so much again.

@cfinch they are little cardboard bottles kinda like the ones we got in the school cafeteria back in the day but with a water bottle cap on it also try getting your insurance to pay for them not sure what ins you have but go to www.insurenutrition.com click where it says check eligibility and fill out the form if approved the will send vitamins also good luck ;)
