Pre Op Diet - Shakes

[Golfbooboo 14]

I love "Unjury Protein Powder". Does anybody know if that is acceptable. Very high quality Protein Powder and I mix with skim milk and ice. The Nutritionist said I need to do shake replacement meals because they have more than just the protein powder, but I could add the protein powder to the Meal Replacement to give it more protein. I just have a lot of that powder because I just really like it anyway. I tried looking for the Carnation Instant Breakfast meal replacement and didn't see it.

I found Muscle Milk on sale today, so grabbed it to try out before my pre-op liquid diet starts...I tried chocolate...YUCK! lol. I also found Myoplex Lite...chocolate fudge .... a little better taste. If i dont find anything else i like better, i can stomach it enough drink one a day for the weeek before and the week after surgery. Im going to try one or two more that ive seen listed on this board and see how they are.

Muscle Milk Light is a better choice because the regular is really high in cals and fat.

Premier Ready to drink is a good choice (available at Costco) 160 cal and 30 g of Protein.< /p>

Try Pure Protein's Frosty Chocolate...the powder. The can is okay too but the powder is really good when mixed with skim milk.

I am almost three years out and I still have a Premier Protein shake from costco almost every morning. YOu really just have to lose weight before your surgery the shakes have nothing to do with it.

I was on opti fast shakes. I am really picky but they weren't too bad. I would let them get frosty in the freezer and add sugar free vanilla Syrup and cinnamon. They actually were good. Today is my last day of them because tomorrow I start Clear Liquids and my surgery is Monday

I agree. My doc sold me Opti fast. They're premixed in cartons with straws. I think they're good. Get vanilla and add flavored syrups. I have coconut, almond, and German chocolate cake. Da Vinci makes them. You can drink the shakes from the carton or blend them with flavor and ice for variety. No issues with shakes for me. I'm 3 days from surrgery and have made it so far.
