Whey Protein instead of Optifast 800 for PreOp Diet?

I was approved Friday and they called today to schedule my surgery for August 20th! I'm happy and scared. Anyway, I have to begin my preop surgery on Wed so I don't have time to order the Optifast. The person who called to schedule the surgery said I could replace with whey Protein. So, I'm assuming one serving on Whey P is the same as one serving of Optifast? Did anyone else do this?

We went out tonight and bought a chocolate, vanilla and strawberry powder. DH is even being supportive enough to do the preop diet with me!

I actually found alot of places near me from that link.

Thank you soooo much.

That's okay!! I suggest if you can get samples of each to try that you should....otherwise...MOST people I know really don't like the Soup so I'd probably avoid it!
