Bandista 7,466 Posted October 3, 2013 Hi Courtney, I'm with you! My surgery date is 11/5 and I'm using these weeks to get off whatever I can in advance. My official pre-op liquid diet will only be two weeks, but I figure whatever I can do in advance will put me in such a better position later. I'm doing some cleansing, drinking Protein Shakes -- have removed sugar, dairy and wheat from my diet. Will do some juice fast days. Also upping the exercise -- I figure that will be good for later. Do you have your surgery date yet? 1 Courtney Minor reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SandyM 1,956 Posted October 5, 2013 I hate to say it, but you need to find a Protein Shake you can tolerate or it will be hard for you to get your min requirement...especially during preop and immediate postoperative. 1 Courtney Minor reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward To 4 more weeks of Protein shakes. I am on new direction shakes. My dr also said Protein powders from GNC were good. I have that too. I like them both. You need to find a shake you can live with. 1 Bandista reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
