pre op diet

[mstara8187 0]

My surgery is schedule Oct 9th I was given a 7-10 day diet to follow to shrink my liver before surgery. The Dr. wanted me to buy 320 worth of his product to drink and eat before surgery. I cannot afford that plus the product don't taste good. What else can I use?

My surgeon and nut recommended that I use Pure Protein. You can buy a large container from Sams for about $20. I used it and was very successful with it. Good luck!

No. It is a regular Protein Shake. I didn't have to do a clear diet for my pre op diet.
