Pre op liquid diet

What is everyone eating for their liquid diet...or drinking rather

[drmeow 323]

I am supposed to have 4 shakes or clear Protein drinks per day - I am using zero carb Isopure in almond milk for my shakes and I have a few of the clear Isopure drinks but they are super sweet!

I have ordered a large container of Syntrax nectar chocolate truffle after trying some individual packets of it. I can also substitute Soups from my doctor's office (Healthwise) for the shakes. I have had the cream of chicken and cream of Tomato, both not bad and a nice change from cold stuff all the time.

In addition I am supposed to get in 6 servings of the following - 1/2 cup plain oatmeal or cream of wheat, 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce, 1 small container of low cal yogurt, small can of V-8, sugar free Jello or pudding.

I also picked up a container of unflavored unjury to put in regular chicken or beef broth.

I'm supposed to get 115 gm protein/day and stay under 1000 calories. So far I've not gone over 800. The Isopure Protein is 50 gms per serving (2 scoops) so it's easy to get enough protein. I'm on day 3, and have 28 more to go before surgery!
