MeShellRene 3 Posted August 26, 2013 Four days into the liquid pre-op diet, it's going pretty good! Enjoying an Isopure Protein Drink now so I know if I will like it after surgery. It's pretty good, I know they say your tastes change after surgery but if I know I like it before then I'm not as worried about lack of choice afterwords. Surgery still set for Sept 3rd, anyone else on liquids yet? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm not looking forward to not eating food all week especially being diabetic. Where do you buy the isopure drink at? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MeShellRene 3 Posted August 27, 2013 I got mine at The Vitamin Shoppe but it was like $5 a bottle I'm gonna try and find it cheaper online. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oldoneyoungagain 200 Posted August 28, 2013 My approval came in today, just submitted last Thursday and doctor's office called at 1:00 PM and said surgery is scheduled for 9/11/13 at 10:00 AM. Start liquid diet 9/2/13. Since I did the liquid diet with the band, won't mind it as remember how great I felt eliminating the carbs, didn't realize how sluggish I felt until I had to do that diet, don't know if was because I'm a diabetic also or if it is just natural. Anyway when I brought it up to the doctor he said it was because I wasn't eating any sugar or carbs. Don't know if I should actually believe that as he is the same doctor who told me he hasn't had a patient who had to have their band removed. I must have been his first in all the years he was doing bands. (I actually switched doctors because of the clinic staff). So surgery 9/11/13 an on to a healthier life.
