I only have about 5 shakes to choose from according to my nutritionist and it looks like I'll be spending about $100 on shakes because I will have to drink 5 per day [emoji30]. I have chose glucerna hunger smart chocolate. Who else is preparing for pre op diet ?!

Me also my doctor have me on a pre op diet this is my last month on the 25th and then they send everything to my insurance company but they have me doing preop diet early I still have to get approved for it

my pre-op diet should be starting in about a month. I have already bought some shakes. I have found there is one a "the dollar Tree" that I am allowed its called "protein Boost" it a mix berry flavor. its 45 calories, no sugar, and 10 grams of protein in a 3 ounce serving. its made with a Hydomaxx protein Blend. its also gluten, lactose, and soy free. I am not sure if it will help you much, but its no to bad tasting.

Are you diabetic? If not Premier Protein at Walmart is not bad and it has 30grams of protein per drink.

Yes I'm diabetic and I can only choose from the following shakes

Ensure active high protein
Atkins advantage shake
Boost calorie smart
Boost glucose control
Carnation instant breakfast
EAS myoplex
Glucerna hunger smart

Wish I could help. I'm not diabetic so I'm not sure about those. Good luck!

My doctor told me to drink for breakfast and lunch premier protein or slim fast for breakfast and lunch and eat meat for dinner vegetables or salad and fruit low fat yogurt etc do good luck luv

My Dr. Provided everything I needed for my 2 week diet and I only can have what they provided. Shakes,soups,some other stuff. This will be the hardest thing I have ever done. I am not diabetic

My four week pre-op shakes and food is supposed to start Thursday Sept 14th ready for surgery Thursday October 12th. I actually kicked it off 15 days ago just to familiarise my adaption.

I did have a "blowout" for my sister-in-law's 60th 9/9/17 ... beer, smorgasbord, cake, etc.

Already down 6.9kg (16-17 lbs) ... caused my surgeon and dietitian much pleasure.

My doctor told me the same. I start my preop diet on Monday. Surgery is on October 17th in NY. When is yours?

I start pre-op diet today 4 protein shakes daily & clear liquids w/ no sugar. My surgery date is 9/4 - there was a cancellation so I got in earlier than planned. I start clear liquid only Monday & Tuesday.
