Did you try Premier Protein drinks? Not the clear bottles but the little cartons? They are super easy to drink!!

We're both scheduled for the 25th. You've got this! I only have a 3-day pre-op diet, but it's a rough one: Clear Liquids only. It's basically a Water fast. It will definitely be worth it in the end, and I don't expect to wake up from surgery hungry! :D


I'd rather gave that! Then two weeks only liquids :( Good luck! Let me know how it goes!

How did ya'll tolerate the hunger when on liquid diet?? I don't want to cheat but I AM SO HUNGRY.

Can you drink protein shakes? I'm using them as meal replacements to lose the weight my surgeon required in the 6-months before surgery, and they do a fairly good job of providing satiety.

Saw your other reply regarding shakes. Maybe try different flavors? You can find singles and 4-packs at Wal-Mart. Also, I put my (refrigerated) shake in the freezer for about 20 minutes before drinking it, and it makes it more shake-like. LOL

I think the only one I have left to try is the cookies n cream! But the caramel is the one I can so far tolerate better now

Me too. A little sore still but manageable!! How are you doing?

I drink core Protein chocolate, taste real good, reminds me of McDonald’s chocolate shake without the guilty.
I wish I liked chocolate, that would make this shake thing so much easier for me. I hate chocolate and vanilla flavored things. Always have.

Protein20 and clear Premir Protein Drinks. Some people hate them so beware. $25 for like 12. Different people will tell you they like or hated different flavors. Delivery from Amazon or Walmart. For Premir. Only amazon delivery for protein20 they have a variety pack.
Clear premier protein drinks? Different that the carton?
