I feel the same. Don't know if I can do this. I don't know why my dr doesn't allow veggies and broth at least. I have to drink 5 chalky shakes that leave an awful after taste in my mouth, lots of Water and sugar free Jello. Of all 3 Optifast I kinda prefer the chocolate right out the freezer. Unfortunately it's the least I purchased :(

I have to do a 2 week liquid diet. I did one week then my surgery was canceled bc of a sinus infection. It was very hard!

I like the " oh yeah " Protein Drinks. They are good. The vanilla and chocolate so I bought a case of them on Amazon it was cheapest there. I can also do broth, cream based low fat Soups and blend out so there's no chunks and they were good too. I also had the sf Jello which wasn't so bad but I didn't like the sf Popsicles. I did make a smoothie of low fat yogurt low fat milk a banana and a scoop of vanilla Protein. Blended it up and it was good too.

Hope this post helps some.

I'm on my second day liquid diet. I'm type 2 diabetic and on insulin. My blood sugar is down in the low 90. I'm dizzy and cold. What happens if I eat some Peanut Butter and crackers? My surgery is next Tuesday the 26th. Sooooo excited

I ate a half of a Peanut Butter sandwich.. I felt like I was going to faint yesterday. I got shaky, cold and very light headed. I felt better after I ate the peanut butter. I am just doing the.best that I can.

Call your surgeon an let him know about your blood sugar level. He may allow you to eat some things.

I agree with above.....let your doc know. He may have something he prefers to the Peanut Butter or he may have other advice! Good luck!!! Hopefully you're almost done with insulin forever!!!!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
