The pre-op diet is killing me bathroom wise



Recommended Posts

I was afraid of this, liquid in, liquid out. I am holding off on eating anything but yogurt & broth basically at work because the shakes really do make me run for the bathroom. I have tried a few kinds and they are all doing it, is this normal? I am on day 5.

I have the opposite problem. The Protein brings me to screeching halt. In the pre-op I ate clementines a couple times a day to help, but now I can't. I am going after broccoli to steam tomorrow and see if that helps. :(:blink:

I didn't have this problem mine is the opposite. The Protein Shakes really constipate me instead.

It may be the type of shake you are drinking. I have a couple different pre mixed shakes that I do and one has that effect on me. I save it for when I'm going to be home alone, lol. The other ones I have no issues with.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
