I've read that we have to go on a clear liquid diet, can you give me some of your favorite drink/meals. I want to replace some of my meals with Protein shakes and or Clear liquids before having to begin my 2 week pre-op diet. (I'm hoping to avoid a culture shock)

Thanks for the help.

Have you been told this by your Team? What are the specifics of your plan?

I wouldn't go too far with such things until checking to see what your surgeon does - one only needs to do a clear diet, at most, for the day before surgery, though some docs may do so for longer, or post op - though most do not. It is certainly worthwhile to experiment with protein shakes to find ones that you like (or at least tolerate) but as tastes can change post op (not guaranteed either way...) you don't want to load up on whatever you find that you do like in case your tastes do change.

Actually yes, only, I completed the 12 week classes in May. Currently I'm waiting to meet with my surgeon and hopefully set a date.

Every pre-op diet seems to be a little different. I think they'll probably give you your specifics at your appointment. I met with my NUT to review mine and I only have to do clear liquids the day before! ????
