NatashaSaysRawr 16 Posted February 8, 2016 I am so excited! I am on day 13 of my clear liquid, Protein Shake pre-op diet so I understand what you new pre-opers are going through. Here are a few things that has helped me - if you can have sugar free popsicles try putting an orange one in your vanilla shake (or any flavor popsicle), put a little Decaf instant coffee in shakes it helps cut down on sweetness as well as changes the flavor and of course the sugar free syrups. I have caramel and I combine a chocolate shake with a few squirts of caramel and a little instant coffee and its just like Starbucks...not really but it's something different! I also got an ice tea maker so I can put decaf tea in it and add stevia if I want it a little sweet and mint if I'm feeling real crazy. I got tired of the taste of sweeteners. Also, congrats to all that are on the losers bench already! Its so inspiring to hear how well everyone is doing! Keep letting us know what works for you and how you're doing! I'm praying and thinking about all of you!!! I have surgery this Monday, Feb 8th so if you could do the same for me I would appreciate it!Same! Mine is today also! In excited but very nervous and scared Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

frmfat2fit 27 Posted February 8, 2016 My surgery is tomorrow!! I am nervous and excited. Pre-op was challenging this week, but based on some suggestions found here, I finally enjoy my Protein Shake. I am gluten free and lactose intolerant, so I have been using a hemp/pea Protein blend. It is heavy and dense. I know use sugar free caramel flavoring with cashew milk, one scoop of regular Protein Powder and a 1/4 scoop of chocolate flavor, plus some ice. It is now pretty tasty. The only part I am nervous about is the shot I have to give myself for 7 days. It is a blood thinner so I don't get any clots. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
