My surgeon requires a two day clear liquid diet but I started today.

Is crystal light tea considered a clear liquid?

I am thinking that is not a good choice due to the caffeine in tea and the aspartame and sucralose. What about the other flavors of crystal light?

I am excited and nervous!! Any tips/advise is much appreciated!

Anyone else getting sleeved Monday?

Crystal light is probably okay but check with your doctor or nutritionist about the tea. Many times they want patient's off of caffeine. Diluted apple juice (at least 50%) might be a safer alternative.

Congrats on a successful surgery. I read a lot about people doing Water with the Protein Powder. Kills two birds with one stone

Take it slow. As the anesthesia and pain meds wear off you'll be more awake. However make the best of when you are awake and walk. When you're not walking, sip. Isopure or Water, get your fluids and Protein in.

      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.
