Hi, I am getting ready to start my pre-op diet day after tomorrow. I've been told, and read, that I will be having 2 Protein shakes a day and one meal of meat and vegetables. What else can I have during the day and night? sugar free non carbonated drinks? Sugar free popsicles? Fruit? I saw somewhere on here where someone had made a simple chart/paragraph with the nutritional value of the different brands of Protein Shakes. Does anyone know where I can find that? Last question - any advice on the best multi-purpose Vitamin to take after surgery and forever more? I'm so excited and so glad to have found this site. My procedure will be on September 12, 2008. Dr. Hollis in Houston will be doing it.

Thank you very much. My email address is MissBecky7@comcast.net. I would love it if you would send me that. Thanks again. Becky

Thank you for the information!! You are doing great!!! I hope to lose some weight on the pre-op diet and am looking forward to my surgery and my healthier life afterwards. Good luck to you and thanks again for taking time to respond to my questions. I am so glad that I found this site and nice people like you.

Thank you so much for the information. I will be on the pre-op diet for 3 weeks starting tomorrow. My procedure is scheduled for the 12th of September. Good luck and I hope we can talk again!!!

Thanks Heather.... for taking time to respond and for the information. Where do you get Isopure?

Thank you so much for responding. I have already given up the carbonated drinks. Do you know if the Atkins Advantage shakes are good? I know they are nutritionally good, but do they taste good? Any ones that are better? Also... do you take a daily Vitamin?? What kind. You were banded on my daughter's birthday! Thanks again for taking time to help a new girl on the block :thumbup:

Hi. I am new too. Are you from New Mexico? Where are you having your procedure done? Maybe we can be buddies. Good luck to you!!
