Oh wow, that's awesome! I get to have 1 piece of fruit and a small dinner along with 3 protein shakes. I thought mine was generous! I'm starting my pre-op diet today too. Good luck to us!!! ☺️

you're really lucky. I had two weeks of just clear, zero- or ultra-low calorie liquids and 4-5 protein shakes a day. I could also have a cup of broth and a cup of V8 or tomato juice.

Yeah me too, Sugar free jello, Broth and protein drinks for two weeks. THAT'S IT! !!!

I did lose 28 pounds though.

I’m on a 3 week pre-op diet and can only have fruits, vegetables, broth, sugar free jello/pudding and a protein shake with every meal. However, I don’t like vegetables so this has been interesting so far. Week one is done and let me tell you, it’s been hard.

Yeah this is exactly what I did and I was never hungry and lost 20 pounds during my preop. Some people I talk to had to do all liquids but im so grateful I didn't have to. I tried to get creative with recipes, used onions and green peppers in everything lol

Started mine yesterday and it is only full liquids. 65 grams of protein a day. Protein shake in the am, soup/broth for lunch and protein shake for dinner. Can also have sugar free jello and low fat yogurts. This has been a trying couple of days
