Hi, everyone!
I’m on my 6th day of this liquid pre-op diet that consists of 4 Protein Shakes a day. I know some people have diets where they can have solids, but it doesn’t state that on mine. I’m having issues with the Protein shakes. I’ve picked up several kinds and I’m having a hard time getting them down at this point and I almost rather not consume anything. I definitely need the protein though, so I’m trying to push through and not starve myself. Did anyone have a similar experience?

Try mixing up the protein shakes a bit. I added PB Fit to a chocolate premier protein and it’s so good! I also bought some puréed pumpkin and added that plus some pumpkin pie extract and that was really good. As long as what you add is low in sugar I think you will be ok. I was specifically told by my nutritionist not to add banana because of the sugar content or that would have been the first thing I tried!

Try Unjury’s unflavored protein so that you can mix with what you can drink!

Congrats on your 6th Day. I was looking on the site. They have fruit flavored protein, and iced tea. Have you tried those? Maybe drinking something that isn't a shake would be easier?

Hi. I had to buy my pre-op protein shakes directly from my doctor. One of them was really good. It was hot cocoa protein shake (mix w heated water). Then after surgery, I'm liking vanilla EAS Lean 15 (15 g protein, 5 or less g sugar) blended in blender w ice (put ice in first and turn on then add water and add ins then blend), water/milk, scoop of powder, and PB Fit (I use this) or a spoon of PB (if allowed in shake per dr), or berries (if allowed per dr), or cinnamon. It's good and a nice change from regular shakes.
