Pre-Op Liquid Diet

[Butterfly66 63]

Would it be okay to mix light yogurt with Protein Powder during the 2 week pre-op diet?

I don't see why not.

I have been told it is easier to take. I have some chocolate Protein mix an vanilla yogurt I'm going to try it out tomorrow. Mix tastes horrible with Water. Milk it's pretty rough, hoping it will be better with yogurt!

Great! I just mixed a "Tillamook Raspberry Light Yogurt" with vanilla Protein powder called "Elite Gourmet" and a cup of Water. It was smooth and very tasty. Not chalky like some of the pre-mixed shakes.< /p>

That sounds delicious!

Ok so what exactly can you eat or drink on the liquid diet?

I find it actually depends on your doctor. Mine has not put me on one. I'm scheduled for Oct 3rd and I see my surgeon on Sept 27th for Pre-op so he may put me on one then.

broth, shakes, some allow yogurt, Water, SF Popsicles, SF Jello. Same stuff you'll be consuming for weeks after surgery.
