Mine is only 2 days before surgery and matches the full liquid diet for after surgery. So it'll probably be just 2 days of Protein Shakes.

I can only have Clear Liquids e.i. sf Jello, sf popsicles (saving grace), sf Powerade, Water, and broth three days prior to surgery. I'm dizzy every morning and extremely snappy to people around me....I also have a constant headache. BUT I've lost 4 lbs in two days so that's good.

Mines the same for a week before surgery

Mine was 4 Optifast shakes a day and an unlimited amount of certain vegetables. Only managed 2 shakes most days and sometimes 3.

Wow that's pretty harsh. Your surgery will be cancelled. Also. It's your responsibility to get your meds in liquid form. My Surgeon helped me with that. Just think your surgeon or clinic could be a little friendlier in their approach.

I have to follow the exact same pre op diet

I have a question, which may sound silly, but ... my surgery is tomorrow. So I’m on clear liquids. I know all the regular clear liquid stuff but can I have Protein Water? It looks clear but I can’t find anywhere where it says protein water is ok or not. It’s not mentioned. I think some added protein will help me get through this.

So.. what’s the deal with protein water on the day before surgery?

Thanks a lot!

GNC has the clear Protein Drink. Im on a 10 day liquid diet, no food or veg at all. Im then on a CLEAR liquid diet night before surgery. It was AWFUL for the first 3 days! Now I am used to it. I lost 10 lbs in 4 days though

I was wondering the same thing! I asked my surgeon specifically if a clear protein drink was ok and she said it was fine to have. I also asked about Bone Broth because I found some that had 9 grams of protein per cup of broth! She ok’d both. Hope that helps

I was not allowed the Protein Drinks for day 9 and 10, on the 10 day pre-op, only broth, Vitamin Water zero, crystal light, sf popsicles, sf Jello, Decaf coffee or tea.....so basically noncaloric stuff.

Ours is simply a clear liquid diet the day before surgery and a bowel prep in the evening, similar to what's done before a colonoscopy (the last part being a bit of overkill for a sleeve, but consistent with the bulk of their practice being DS's.)

Mine is the exact same as you RickM. It's just like what I did before my colonoscopy.

I had both Bone Broth and clear Protein Drinks prior to surgery too. The bone broth is much more satisfying!
