Debrry 32 Posted January 17, 2013 Hi, I'm scheduled for my surgery this Monday. Having a terrible time with the Protein Shakes. I have tried Unjury and GNC I get them down then they come right back up! Tonight I decided to go through my paperwork for day before surgery list of what I am allowed to eat. As I looked I notices that the 2 week liquid diet does not have yogurt or oatmeal on it BUT the day before surgery it's on the list?? Does that make sense to anyone? I would be doing fine with my Protein if I could be eating Greek yogurt!!! I called my doctors office but they are closed until tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2013newme 42 Posted January 18, 2013 why don't you try carnation instant Breakfast (sugar free) for your protein... and no - you shouldn't have that oatmeal the day before surgery - it should be all clear liquids.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bethxxx 304 Posted January 18, 2013 I'm having surgery this Monday!!! Good luck! I can't eat yogurt afterwards until I'm two weeks out, in the purée stage. It's not technically a liquid so you aren't supposed to eat it in the liquid stage. Just follow your doctors orders exactly, that's what I plan on doing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Debrry 32 Posted January 18, 2013 Thanks! I'm going to call them in the morning. I need to stop and get the Carnation instant breakfast. I am trying! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FXDF2008 14 Posted January 18, 2013 And my surgeon allows me to have yogurt and puréed fruit on day three post op. All surgeons have different food requirements. I'd follow what yours says. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
