Protien shake for liquid diet.

I did a lot of research on what I should be drinking for my 2 weeks pre op liquid diet. Last week I finally found something I really like. It's 20 grams of Protein per serving and also has no sugar as well as chromium to regulate my blood sugar (which regulates mood). Also (a little TMI) I am not getting "backed up" using this because it has digestive enzymes (which is a great thing :tongue2:)

Same company also does a super greens drink so that I am getting my fruits and veggies servings so I am not missing out on any Vitamins or minerals while I'm doing the pre op liquid diet.

My surgery is scheduled for 10/6/09. I know I can do it!

If any one is interested in what I am using send me a message and I'll send you some info on it.

Hi everyone....I sent you the info so be sure to check your inbox :mad:

Folks, be aware that almost all docs have a preference for what you use during the pre-op phase. And pre-op diets vary dramatically from one doc to the next. Some docs are all liquid. My doc was 2 shakes (made from a powder purchased in his office) and 2 lean meals per day. You'll want to follow your doc's specific diet because, as Restless Monkey will attest, if you don't do what you're told you could have a rude awakening on surgery day .... wake up to find your liver didn't shrink enough and the doc didn't put your band in at all.

So you probably sell these shakes, since you're not posting a link or any other info. Everyone else who finds a great shake doesn't hesitate to post everything in the message.

Actually my friend sells these and both her and I started using it and then I bought the product for my pre op diet and signed up to share and sell as well because I like the product so much. I didn't post the info because I didn't want it to be "spamy". I just wanted to share this great product I found and if others were interested great if not then they didn't have to ask for the info (and that's ok too). And no matter what product you buy, someones making money off it.

"And no matter what product you buy, someones making money off it."

That's true, but if the person recommending a product is also the person making money from the sell of the product, I want to know up front.

Fair enough....but if someone asks for the info then I just send them the website link and leave it at that.

Please send me the info. I'm banding 10/2!!! Can;'t wait.
