Did anyone use 1% or skim milk to mix Protein Shakes during pre-op diet?

I used 1%

pre-op for me was Clear Liquids so no milk products at all. Only clear liquids. I was only able to use Water and it wasn't bad at all.

oh, then you probably could use a 1% milk. Well I did pretty good and so far lost 8 #'s and will be sleeved tomorrow. I have to be at the hospital at 6am. When is your date?

[lizzybeth 17]

I used skim milk as well, and am also sleeved tomorrow (have to be at the hospital at 9am). And I have lost about 8 pounds too (tjloser - we're like sleeve twins, haha!)

lizzybeth, sleeve twin, keep me posted and I'll do the same. Hope for a speedy recovery. See you on the other side of this journey or as they say on the loser's bench.

I'm using skim. The Protein is horrid in Water to me.

[Trcyprkr70 69]

Ok everyone.... I started out drinking the Atkins shakes which to me are kind of sweet. I mix the powder with skim milk this morning & it was good. Actually better. I also get to eat lean Protein that I do once a day.
