Today I was notifed that insurance has approved my surgery!! YAY! Just waiting on my surgeon required psych consult to be faxed, which was done a month ago...ughh, before I can schedule surgery. I'm very excited and nervous! Does anyone have any ideas for liquid diet options? I am required to do 2 weeks of liquids prior to surgery...eekkk! Haha

I recommened getting a blender. A lot of Soups you can put in a blender to smooth out the chunks. My favorite was mixing nacho cheese Soup, milk, beef consume and taco seasoning. But Taco's are my favorite food and I like spicey. There is also a good liquid recipie forum on here somewhere that I found very helpful.

Are you talking about the Protein shakes or just liquifying everything you eat before the surgery?

Thanks for the info. Any liquid ideas. My nutritionist gave me a few ideas regarding Protein supplements during pre-op and post-op. What's seemed to be a favorite?

I love my Myoplex shakes. Havent seen anyone else on this board say they are drinking them but I think they have the best taste of the ones I tasted...

I'm getting banded on July 19th. I have to do a 3 week pre-op diet. I'm so worried about it.
