Have dr David Kim as my dr and I'm on my 2 week liquid diet. I can't call them right now, but I've forgotten my bariessential shake mix at home. I won't be able to get there during the work day. Could I get a low carb slim fast for lunch?

Try to find a shake that has only 5g of sugar, 5g of fat and is 200 calories or less. You also can have sugar free Jello, applesauce, and broth. Fill up on Water. You will do fine.

My surgeon told me Slim Fast was ok pre-op as long as it was the High Protein version. I'm allowed 2 a day in conjunction with other liquids!

Good luck!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
