Pre-Op and Post-Op liquid diet



Recommended Posts

Hi! I'm wondering if anyone knows of any places or brands that sell inexpensive Protein shakes/powders? Having to drink them before surgery and after will get pricy and I'm just looking for some good quality and inexpensive ones! Thanks in advance!

Carnation Breakfast essentials are relatively inexpensive. GNC oftentimes has sales. You can also save money with a membership. Premier Protein periodically goes on sale at Sam's Club and costco. I stock up when they have sales.

I like it. I would suggest you get samples of any Protein supplement to try before you invest in large tubs.

You can get sample packs from Unjury.< /p>

You may also want to get a sampler assortment of Syntrax nectar to try.

One of my favorite clear Proteins for my clear phase was ProtiDiet liquid Beverage Concentrates.

Ive been doing six star that you get at Walmart. 20 bucks for a big tub. If its all you are consuming, its easy to afford. Much cheaper than regular food. Ive been replacing lunch with a shake for about 3 months now so I can get used to drinking them and help lose before surgery

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
