Hi all. I am a week away from liquid diet and my surgery is the 29th. I bought the baritrack powered and it does not agree with me. I get bad stomach ache. Is there something other than the shakes that I can have for the week? I there a soup or anything? Has anyone else had this happen?

My surgery is also the 29th... check with your surgeons office for alternatives

Sorry about the bad trial with the shake. I suggest you try a few before giving up, because you'll be drinking them afterwards, too. Premier Protein is pretty popular around here -- I mix mine 50-50 with iced coffee, even now at 2 months out.

39.2#s -- 12 in the 2-week pre-op, and the rest since then. I like banana. :-) I usually have 8 ounces with 8 ounces of iced coffee in the morning because it helps me meet my protein goal consistently.

I agree with Apple203. I've been trying a few to see what I like so I can stock up before surgery and not waste a lot of money on ones I don't like. I like the ready made protein shakes. If there's a Vitamin Shoppe by you they usually have bottles in the fridge where you grab several different ones without having to buy the whole pack. I agree about premier. I like muscle milk as well. But I love Iconic Cafe Au Lait. It's coffee flavored. Since I tried it, I've replaced breakfast most morning with that. You can also try bone broth. It has 10g of protein. It's nice when you need something hot, but still want to get protein in.

I have tried Premier and a protein powder from GNC which I just gave to my brother. I was ok with muscle milk for a bit but now that is bothering me too. I will try to mix with coffee like you do. That should get me through the week before and I did see soups on the Bari store approved for Pre surgery. Thanks!
