Amazeyem 32 Posted August 27, 2012 I'm not required to do one but I'm thinking it wouldn't hurt to try out some Protein Shakes for later and see what I like. I would be sticking to a pre op like glue if I spent that much on it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MustangSteve 31 Posted August 28, 2012 Welcome to all the new September members! It’s going to be a great month. I started my 2-week pre-op diet today in preparation for my surgery on September 10 @ 10am. I’m allowed three shakes and a healthy' date=' balanced meal (eaten at once or spread out during the day). I also kicked caffeine out of my life last week and only had a headache for one day. I’ve been doing a half regular and half Decaf blend for 6+ months and it made it so MUCH easier to give it up completely. I still like the taste of coffee, so I had a mocha Protein Shake this morning. Delish! I already spoke with the anesthesia department and have my pre-op appointment/labs this Wednesday. Everything is coming together and I still can’t believe it…..someone pinch me! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />[/quote'] I get only liquid diet, using Water and powdered Protein to mix and drink- I already miss FOOD! Fed my dog and he just seemed to grin at me while digging his face in the food 2 Riverbuff2 and kisersassy reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MustangSteve 31 Posted August 28, 2012 Yes, try the different Protein mixes, I like the French vanilla, but the chocolate tasted like chalk. Don't forget the clear chicken or beef broth, Walmart has them cheap and they are tasty when you get hungry in afternoons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
