Doing the Happy Dance - August 6th in Columbia, SC. I started my pre-op diet yesterday - Protein Shake for Breakfast, Protein shake for lunch and a sensible dinner... Not so bad! The shakes seem to keep me pretty full.

Hi Beachbum, I'm on Aug 7th - can I ask you which shakes you're drinking? I can't find one that doesn't have that "gritty" texture and I rally don't like it. Thanks!

We are sleeve buddies!! I'm really scared about this pre op diet. I start on Thursday too. Just picked everything up from the surgeon for it. What kind of Protein Shakes are you going to use?

[miss_cee85 160]

Good luck to you guys who start liquids this week. I've read that the first few days are the worst. So, hang in there. Keep us updated along the way.
