Hoping They Dont Postpone My Surgery

[D1NOnlySexyLady 70]

So today after speaking to my NUT she told me that what I was eating as my two week pre op diet was all wrong and that I should be having the Bariatric Advantage Meal Replacement shakes. But my surgery is on May 1st and there is no way I can have it deliver at a reasonable time. Anyways after reading some of the topics I asked her if I can use Body Fortress and she mention that while it's not her first choice she's not completely against it. So now I'm just worried is there any way that they can stop my surgery because I did'nt do as I was told. I have been waiting so long for this surgery and I wouldn't want for it to be cancel. Hopefully someone can share their experience so I know I'm not alone here.

Has anyone had this shake

It's all about the liver, they need your liver to shrink. My NUT gave me recommendations for Protein shakes. I did EAS Carb control AdvanEdge already made shakes. I'm on the go so I don't have time for a blender. That was 110 cals with 17 grams of Protein had the twice or sometimes three a day. Then small meal at night, Jello and Water in between. What is it that your NUT wants you to focus on? Are you liquids only or low carb? Have you lost any weight?

My surgeon provided different choices. The Bariatric Advantage was one of them but I used Designer whey and picked it up at the grocery store. She should give you guidelines as to what they want the Protein Shake to consist of I would think. Doubt she will cancel your surgery if you stick closely to your diet and have lost some weight by surgery. Praying that your surgery will move forward as scheduled for you!

I think you'll be ok. I drink the body fortress shakes. My pre op was only 1 week. My hubby is going in April 30. He starts his pre op Monday. Walmart-15.00 body fortress.

Sorry for the late respond I went to Walmart and bought the body fortress I bout the chocolate, chocolate with Peanut Butter, Cookies and cream, and strawberry. Has anyone had these favors?should I take some back? Will I be able to use them after surgery? I am only on liquid diet from tomorrow on of course. I was told to have a shake every three hours and to have some salad as well. But Otherwise all I can have is liquid. Crystals light, Jello, broth, and Protein Shake, are the only thing I can have from tomorrow till surgery on May 1st. Now my question still stands can they postpone surgery because I did not complete a full two week of pre op

Only reason they would postpone is if you didn't follow the plan and gain weight or if they do the surgery and your liver is too big they can reschedule. Honestly you should be ok, I'd call your surgeons office and ask. Only they know really what would have to happen for them to reschedule. Least you'll have piece of mind verses worrying based off of advice from us you know.
