prepping for the pre op diet.- Canadians I need your help



Recommended Posts

Hi guys,

I'm starting to gather my stuff to make it through the pre-op diet... Which is why I need canadians to help me out as our products are a bit different than the USA :) However any bits of info and help are completely welcome.

Ok

I need the low calorie Protein shake.... and of course it has to have less than 6 grams of sugar and be low in carbs as well. My flavour of choice is vanilla or strawberry so any brand names and where you got it would be such a big help.

OK -my question for post-op.... liquid Protein. What do you like/ what was terrible, where did you get it.

Just incase you think I'm being lazy - I have 3 kids and am looking after my in-laws - they live with me... so it's really hard to get out on a fact finding mission.. I really appreciate any help that is thrown my way.

Thanks so much everyone.

For my Pre op diet I used the Adkins shakes they are Pre made so you can just grab one, They only have 6g of carbs, I get them at Walmart or a grocery store usually near the Vitamins. They really are not bad I am particular to the chocolates. For clear Protein I have ordered some mix able type drinks from Baratric Choice the drinks are called Proti. The website has tons of stuff just have a look around. Good luck with everything! Smiles!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
