My liquid diet starts this money. My meal plan is 4 shakes a day (which I took a sip of muscle milk and wanted to gag) and I am allowed to have vegetables with a 10 calorie dressing. And broth. Any ideas on things to eat that taste good and are allowed? Pre op recipes if you will and any shakes that actually are tolerable. Thanks in advance..

I just had Surgery this past Tuesday. I drank lots of EAS lo-carb Protein Shakes. They come in vanilla, chocolate and strawberry. They are actually pretty good. I also tried the muscle milk and did not like it. I am still on a liquid diet through Sunday so still drinking them. You may want to give them a try:)

Do something now on finding a better tasting or tolerable shake. For me each one I had to drink got worse, lol. It takes effort but you will find one and get through it. We all did.

Good luck to you.

I will be banded this Tues, my doctor is only making me do liquids with one meal a day. My liquids consist of Cereal, Soup with all the stuff inside. I wonder why doctors are so different on pre - op rules. Good luck finding a good shake. I like Adkins shakes.< /p>

Boost Protein shake is pretty good (it says HIGH Protein on the bottle- and I think it's got some green color on the front). I would even suggest Nutrament if you don't find any shake that you can tolerate. Or even Slimfast

If you have a juicer, you can juice broccoli with an apple. Tastes GREAT!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
