MystiGal 143 Posted May 31, 2013 I say no. 10 days is enough torture! It is going to suck either way. You will be on liquids for a while. Just my opinion. 8 Lori228, newlife27, DonRodolfo and 5 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vixynne 695 Posted May 31, 2013 I've been using Syntrax Nectar for breakfasts and occasionally for lunch as well, then a protein-rich, low carb dinner--ten pounds gone in a month, so I can't complain! 3 brandnewbie, FeeIsMe2 and newlife27 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brandnewbie 42 Posted May 31, 2013 My doc requires a 3 week one, Ensure and cal free clear drinks... gonna be a longa** month :-) I'd almost kill for a ten day one. If you want to try flavours great, but do it before. Don't make yourself do an extra day just for practice. Just my two cents 2 MystiGal and newlife27 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ms.AntiBand 2,984 Posted May 31, 2013 Don't forget if you do find a favorite shake you really like... After surgery you may hate it. Things change in a big way when it comes to taste so don't stock up and waste your money 2 newlife27 and FeeIsMe2 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
