I need to lose 9lbs before my surgery HELP!

Chelly is right on about what to do. Premier Protein has been my life saver. No fuss. Once I went on the liquid diet - that was it. I had to start thinking as though I'm post op even though I'm not. I'm living mostly on Premier Protein and Cytosport whey powder mixed with 30 cal Almond Milk. But Premier Protein is the true life saver for me. I've had to divorce myself from my romance with eating. You can get the PP from costco. If you aren't a member, do you have a friend who can help you out? I wish you luck.

PS My doc told me to lose 30 lbs. I'm almost there.

I agree, I lost 9lbs in 10 days on my pre op liquid diet. I was only allowed to drink sugar free carnation instant Breakfast drinks with skim milk up to 5 times a day. Chicken/ beef broth, sugar free Jello and sugar free Popsicles.

I could only have the Protein shakes the first 9 days, on the last day, I was only allowed Clear liquids.

The first 3 days are the worst but I actually got to a point where I could not even drink 5 of those Protein Shakes a day.

I would check with your nutritionist first!
