That is exactly what I bought for post-op suppliment, but I was not sure about using it for pre-op. My RD wants me to use nothing but whey Protein Isolate post-op and this is a mix of Isolate and concentrate, but it is half the price of Isolate and I have read a ton of body building forums about the difference. I discovered that the Isolate is better for fast absorbtion after exercise and the concentrate is overall healthier because of the extra amino acids. So I figure that this is a good compromise. I may have answered my own question from another post in this forum who said the liquid diet should be ~500 calories and no more than 10g carbs per day. It looks like since my focus should be on carbs, I should drink the Body Fortress stuff with 16g carbs per 500 calories vs the Atkins at ~20g per 500 calories. Hmm, is it total carbs or 'sugars" to keep under 10g per day?

Please consult a pharmacist; not all pills can be crushed safely. Many pills have special coatings to make them disolve further down in your digestive system. If yours is sweet, chances are that it has a coating, but it is possible that the coating is just for taste. But it should take no time or money to ask a pharmacist about your specific meds.
